Abstract

With strong community backing and an impressive array of features, Btrfs is widely regarded as _the_ next generation filesystem for Linux.

This talk will outline some of the features offered by Btrfs - namely snapshots, compression and clones - and demonstrate at how they can be exposed to Windows clients via Samba. In addition to the demonstration, this talk will also cover some Samba implementation details.
