SMB 3.0 is a future network storage protocol


Microsoft sees SMB 3.0 as a primary future storage protocol,
iSCSI is legacy. Reasons:

iSCSI spec is complex and controlled by community and SMB


is fully maintained by Microsoft

CSVFS has issues playing the clustered file system role

MSFT sees more flexibility in scaling compute and storage


layers independently by using commodity hardware

SoFS provides a cost-effective way to scale existing FC and


SAS infrastructures
