OpenText NFS Server™

Open Text NFS Server turns Windows PCs into enterprise-class NFS servers, allowing NFS-enabled devices to seamlessly access Windows file resources. Open Text NFS Server is a must have software solution for any company that employs a Windows-centric NAS solution in a multi-platform IT environment. Network File System (NFS) is one of the most successful and popular distributed file system services designed for use in a heterogeneous computing environment. Unfortunately, most Windows-based network-attached storage (NAS) solutions lack a reliable and high-performance connection to UNIX and other NFS-based storage devices. Open Text NFS Server empowers Windows NAS solutions with a true enterprise-class NFS server that integrates seamlessly with the Microsoft ecosystem, from the operating systems to the Active Directory service. Functioning as the main communication hub, Open Text NFS Server holds the life-line of the enterprise storage solution. It offers the highest functional value at only a fraction of the overall storage budget.
