    Hi Alexxxxxx,

     

    As far as I know, the File Classification Infrastructure has been introduced with Windows Server 2008 R2.

     

    The File Classification includes the ability to define classification properties, automatically classify files based on location and content, apply file management tasks such as file expiration and custom commands based on classification and produce reports that show the distribution of a classification property on the file server

     

    For your convenience, I have list a useful File storage team blog as followed:

     

    You may check a overview of File Classification Infrastructure including a sample rule to see how it works, check Classifying files based on location and content using the File Classification Infrastructure (FCI) in Windows Server 2008 R2

     

    As for if the File Classification work fine with third party application, please consider contacting the vendor of third party software to check the detail.

     

    Thanks for your understanding.

     

    Hope this can be helpful.

     

    Best Regards,

    David Shen

    I have seen this blog before, the technet article, there doesnt seem to be much information on the rest of the web. Are there any other samples that might be out there?
