How to push data from Azure Data lake to remote file server (network file folder)

Question

Hello Experts,

I need your guidance on how to push files from Azure Data lake to remote file server(network file folder).

Our requirement is to send files from Azure Data Lake Gen2 to Remote File Server( Network File Folder), once the data pushed to network file folder, other systems will pick up those files and do conversion and push to target system.

I am able to push files from ADL Gen2 to my local system file folder in one of my driver through self hosted integration run time installed in my machine and giving Host details as my driver details eg : D:\POC and user name and password as my windows login credentials, I am able to successfully push files from ADL to local file folder by running IR.

My Question is " How would I achieve the same functionality from ADL to remote file folder (network file folder ) ? "

I mean pushing files from ADL to some remote file folder as eg : Network >XYZ or \XYZ . Does i need to install IR run time there also if so where I have to install . Can you please help me in achieving this .

Your Help is very much appreciated. and it means a lot .
Thank you.

Yes, IR has to be installed in a on-premise machine where folder is located. See Supported capabilities and Prerequisite section in below:
