With Tuxera ESC, data moves from your embedded devices to centralized file servers for easy access from all your Windows and macOS users.
Tuxera’s experienced engineering team also brings expert integration support to ensure your embedded devices are running SMB in production with minimal effort.
With 40 years of embedded system experience and 10 years of experience with enterprise-grade SMB, you can trust Tuxera with both your most mission-critical production workloads and your broadest enterprise base.
What does ESC
deliver?
SMB (Server Message Block) is the protocol that lets Windows. macOS and Linux machines share files, printers, and resources across a network. Embedding an SMB client directly into hardware devices is a meaningful architectural shift for many workflows offering considerable time savings and additional security.
Reducing the steps needed to move data in and out of devices running Tuxera ESC It delivers a comprehensive, stable, efficient, modern, enterprise-grade SMB client for embedded Linux builds
Sample diagram
The hardware devices mount shares from an SMB server. They can then read and write data to the server.
Data created by the device is then available to any client system connected to the server.
Alternatively, data uploaded to the SMB server will be accessible by the connected devices.
Security is controlled by Active Directory, Kerberos, and encryption.
