I am developing a search system, Can I Use Windows DFS as my storage ?

Hi Everyone,

I am reading about Windows DFS and I am wondering if it is helpful for me.

I want to build a search system that will index local files and create indexes files for searching,

I want the system to also be able to  perform searches on the another remote instance .

so I was wondering if I can use Windows DFS as my storage and then easily be able to add another instances if I wanted.

is this possible ? how the two servers will communicate if they are in different geographical sites ? what do I need to do , open ports, public IPs ...etc ?

any opinions will be appreciated.

Thanks

Misbah
