Filesystem of Windows Phone?

What is the name of filesystem in Windows Phone OS?

I am aware of Isolated Storage, but is it the name given to the file system OR does it constitute a full-fledged filesystem, such as; exFat, NTFS or ReFS?

Isolated Storage is just an abstraction. Windows Phone 7 used Windows CE as the backend, and Windows CE uses its own storage management mechanisms. CE also supports FAT (I don't remember the exact flavor) for external memory. Windows Phone 8 probably uses NTFS but this is just a guess.
