This lecture targets the embedded system developer, network engineer, and OEM device architect. The lecture introduces the CIFS protocol, why the time is right for CIFS deployment on every embedded device that includes a network stack, and how to migrate your existing application code from proprietary network data sharing (or no data sharing) to the CIFS open standard.

When you finish watching this lecture, you will have a clear introduction to the power of file sharing between Windows, UNIX, and other CIFS enabled embedded devices.
