One of this process is in charge of updating an XML file on a NAS (Network Attached Storage) while the other one reads this file.

We have reached that point where one application server is not enough. Apart from performance benefits we want to have a somewhat failover scenario as we cannot afford a 30 minute downtime just because the server needs a reboot for the new kernel. The first issue that has to be resolved is where to store the shared files so that both ...
I'm the administrator for a company intranet and I'd like to start producing videos. However, we have a very small bandwidth tunnel between our locations, and I'd like to avoid hogging it by streaming videos by multiple users. I'd like to synchronize the files to servers at each of the locations. Then I'd like the browser (or the intran...
I'm using xcopy in Windows to copy just the changed files between some folders on my local machine and an NAS drive in our office. When I do it from the NAS to local, it works fine (i.e., it only copies over the files that have changed or been added).But, when I do it from my local drive to the NAS, it always copies over all the files. ...

I have thousands of small CSV files I want to aggregate (with a little munging in-script first). They are on a NAS device, a "SNAP" Server to be more exact. I've had some success with VBA from Excel - doing about 700 files in about a minute, if I recall (was a month ago). Actually, it was half-success: the snap server is home to 80% pdfs...
I'm working on a project in Visual Studio, and I want to create a local database file (.mdf) within the project directory so that it can be checked into SubVersion and have configuration management.

We're in the process of moving our .NET platform from using MSMQ to ActiveMQ. We pump 30+ million persistent messages through it a day, so throughput and capacity are critical to us. The way our MSMQ dependent applications are configured, is they write to local/private queues first. Then we have a local service that routes those messa...
