What are advantage of Isilon OneFS File System Access Api over accessing the file system using SMB or NFS?

Viewed 290

I want to create some utility that read/write the files with permission (ACL) from/to Isilon server. This utility will access the server either on LAN or VPN. Here my main concern is to achieve performance too for file/folder enumeration and copy files data with attributes/acl/timestamp too.

As I know, you can access the file storage using SMB if server is on Windows server else NFS if server is on unix/linux.

so I want some basic information that in what scenarios OneFS Api's are better than accessing directly over NFS/SMB.
