AFS

Andrew File System

Michigan State University provides centrally funded network-based AFS storage space to faculty, staff, and students as well as for course usage.

AFS is an acronym for "Andrew File System" which was developed at Carnegie Mellon University starting in 1984. The idea was to provide a campus-wide file system for home directories which would run effectively using a limited bandwidth campus backbone network.
