1.网络文件系统(NFS):
NFS是由Sun Microsystems引入的网络,可用于基于Unix或Linux的操作系统,并且表示网络文件系统。这是一个用于为应用程序提供远程访问功能的网络。远程访问使用户可以使用另一台计算机来编辑甚至仔细查看其计算机。即使用户离计算机很远,也可以修复旧文件。该协议为设备提供了通过网络修改数据的功能。
2.通用Internet文件系统(CIFS):
CIFS是文件共享中基于Windows的网络,并且在Windows OS上运行的设备中使用。 CIFS是作为Microsoft发明的Server Message Block的公共版本而引入的。这是一项非常有效的功能,可使设备共享多个打印机设备,甚至为用户和管理共享多个端口。 CIFS还允许访问连接到该服务器的另一台计算机的文件的请求。然后,服务器将这个请求提供给所请求的客户端。 CIFS支持庞大的数据公司,以确保其数据被多个位置的员工使用。
NFS和CIFS之间的区别:
Basis of | NFS | CIFS |
---|---|---|
Acronym | Network File System | Common Internet File System |
Definition | NFS is used for the devices which run on UNIX or LINUX operating systems | CIFS is used for remote actions which works on Windows operating systems |
Communication | It is better than CIFS | Creates a confusion which communicating |
Support | Users using UNIX or LINUX OS are most preferable supported | Users using Windows OS are preferable supported |
Session feature | NFS does not provide sessions | CIFS provides sessions |
Port protocols | It uses 111 port for both TCP and UDP | It uses 139 and 455 for TCP and 138 and 137 for UDP |
Speed & Scalability | Highly scalable and more speed than CIFS | Low scalable and moderate speed |
Implementation | It is simple to implement and executing query is fast | It is difficult to implement and configure for faults |
Security | It is not reliable and there is no special security | It has more security features than NFS |
