FOLDERMAESTRO

FolderMaestro File Collaboration is an enterprise level real-time multi-directional distributed file locking and synchronization technology that ensures the same data exists on all participating servers regardless of where changes occur, and prevents users on disparate networks from accessing a file that is in use by a user on another network. A file collaboration session consists of two or more participating servers, and a folder hierarchy called the Watch Set, located on each server which will... be kept synchronized by propagating file locks and modifications to all participating servers in real-time. FolderMaestro has local and remote characteristics that form the basis of a distributed application framework. A FolderMaestro installation is composed of 3 primary components: 1. FolderMaestro Hub The Hub is the central component of the FolderMaestro framework. All FolderMaestro solutions are installed, configured and started at the Hub. 2. FolderMaestro Broker The Broker makes up the central messaging system that supports FolderMaestro applications. The Broker provides the core communication facility that connects the Hub and Agents in a FolderMaestro collaboration environment. 3. FolderMaestro Agent The Agent is a lightweight component that is installed on a networked host that enables it to participate in a FolderMaestro collaboration environment.More
