Nasuni Adds Global File Locking to Cloud Storage Service

As part of an effort to make files easier to manage globally via a cloud service, Nasuni today announced it is adding a global file locking capability to its namesake cloud storage service.

In addition, for the first time the company is also offering a synchronization service for mobile device users along with an upgraded appliance for accessing the service.

Nasuni CEO Andres Rodriguez says the global file locking capability in the UniFS global file systems extends the control IT organizations have over version 6.0 of the Nasuni cloud storage service. According to Rodriguez, each application accessing the Nasuni cloud can now lock down access to a file to prevent multiple applications from writing to the same file at the same time, says Rodriguez. That capability means that for the first time, a global file system in the cloud has the same attributes of any file system that traditionally ran on premise.
