Gartner said WSS will replace Windows file shares
April 30, 2008
From http://blog.gartner.com/blog/index.php?itemid=1637: “We think Windows SharePoint Services (WSS) is a natural upgrade from LAN file-shares. So much so that, by 2010, WSS will replace a majority of Windows-based, LAN file shares. (We expect explosive growth in WSS deployment and usage.)”
Wow!
Well, I think that the ‘majority’ of Windows file shares will live on at least until the hardware they’re running on fails. After that, will they be replaced by something that’s more complex to deploy and administer? Not sure about that one. The explosive growth prediction is proving true, though.
