File services

The job of a file service is to command and to carry out task that are needed to read, update, add, delete and browse files. File Server Resource Manager is a collection of tools that allow administration to understand, control and manage the amount of data stored on their servers.  A way of sharing files is through file sharing this is done across a network however there are certain things that cannot be done by students that can by teachers and perfect example of this is that a teacher is able to put work and files on the shared drive with students only being able to open and view however if they wanted to add files to the shared folder they would not be able to due to privilege rights set by the network admin. When someone new joins the network they will be put on a list to either be able to have the privilege rights e.g. student and teacher. The good thing about putting users into groups is it makes it a lot easier to manage if there is a problem and also if they want to make certain files private they can do so. This is an example of file sharing which is basically transmitting files over a computer network or the Internet. Another file service is the management of files, when you talk about file management a good example of this is on a school server and where the individual students have their own user area. The other type is file transfer the works somewhat similarly to file sharing and is one of the more preferred options due to the fact that it is the easiest way to transfer files. The way in which it works is that the TCP manages all the data transfer and then IP would then direct the traffic to the correct network. This allows you to send multiple files across network knowing that they will be sent to the right place.
