Abstract
The present systems and methods generally relate to the elimination or reduction of network traffic required to support operations on a file of any size stored remotely on a file server or network share. More particularly, the present systems and methods relate to encapsulation of a remote file in such a way that the file appears to the local operating system and any local applications to be residing locally, thus overcoming some of the performance issues associated with multiple users accessing a single network share (e.g., CIFS share) and/or a single user remotely accessing a large file.
