The EFS (Everything File Server) is a file indexing service that runs on the Q++Studio file servers and is queried via HTTP and JSON to almost instantaneously list all files matching a given pattern on the file server.

➢The EFS Server is most often used to locate QuarkXPress and InDesign files, but it can be used for any type of file.

The EFS server shines when querying WAN servers via the internet as well as LAN servers on slow local networks, but it is also noticeably faster that windows search on fast local networks and even on local drives of the workstation on which Q++Studio is running.

As the EFS file indexing must be installed on the server, please contact Q++Studio technical support, to have EFS installed and parametrized.
