Open File System

An Open File System is a way for multiple programs to access and read or write data on a storage device simultaneously. It manages how files are stored, retrieved, and shared, ensuring data consistency and avoiding conflicts. This system allows different applications to open files without interference, coordinates access rights, and maintains organized, secure data management. Essentially, it acts as an efficient intermediary that keeps data accessible, safe, and well-structured for various users and programs operating on the same device.
