Btrfs vs. Windows Server 2012

Btrfs (pronounced as "butter fuss", "better F S", "butter F S", "b-tree F S", or simply by spelling it out) is a file system based on the copy-on-write (COW) principle, initially designed at Oracle Corporation for use in Linux. Windows Server 2012, codenamed "Windows Server 8", is the sixth release of Windows Server.
