Assignment: Using DFS
Suppose you are employed by a company that has recently acquired another multinational company operating in three different countries. One of your managers has asked whether or not it would be feasible to replicate data between these different locations both cost effectively and efficiently.

3. Examine remote differential compression for its ability to meet the requirement of the organization to have efficient data replication between the different office locations.
4. Suggest two means by which DFS can improve fault tolerance for critical data stores in organizations, providing a high-availability solution.
