Page 16 highlights

Overlay Optimizer Overlay Optimizer is a software component that works with Microsoft Unified Write Filter (UWF). Overlay Optimizer provides write protection and extends the uptime of devices. Overlay optimizer works on the Windows 10 IoT Enterprise operating system. The UWF protects the disk by storing the changes in the RAM overlay. When an application tries to write data to the disk, the write filter redirects the write operations to the RAM overlay. The overlay size is preconfigured and cannot increase dynamically. When the overlay runs out of space over a period, the device restarts. The Overlay Optimizer monitors the UWFs' overlay space and the content. Overlay Optimizer identifies higher overlay space consumption in write filter and moves the unused content to the Overlay Optimizer's disk overlay. Clearing the UWF overlay extends the device uptime.

Overlay Optimizer is a software component that works with Microsoft
Unified
Write Filter (UWF). Overlay Optimizer provides write
protection and extends the uptime of devices. Overlay optimizer works on the Windows 10 IoT Enterprise operating system.
The UWF protects the disk by storing the changes in the RAM overlay. When an application tries to write data to the disk, the write
filter
redirects the write operations to the RAM overlay. The overlay size is
preconfigured
and cannot increase dynamically. When the overlay
runs out of space over a period, the device restarts.
The Overlay Optimizer monitors the UWFs' overlay space and the content. Overlay Optimizer
identifies
higher overlay space consumption
in write
filter
and moves the unused content to the Overlay Optimizer's disk overlay. Clearing the UWF overlay extends the device uptime.
