Features
CIFS and NFS protocols
Choose between network file access protocols such as NFS (more common for Linux and container orchestration tools) and CIFS (more common for Windows).
Network access
File shares are created on a dedicated network. You can control which of your production networks have access to which file shares.
Access control lists
Flexibly control access to your shares via access control lists. You may selectively grant read/write, read-only, or no access to specific instances and components.
Easy upgrades
If your file storage runs out of space, adding new storage space is as simple as a single API call. No manual volume resizes or data migrations are required.
Snapshots
Similar to volumes, you can take a snapshot of your file storage, to have a recovery point in case you may want to revert changes later.
API-driven
Creating and managing file shares is fully API-driven. File shares only take seconds to provision or update.
