File Storage

File storage is a type of cloud storage that provides standard file access interfaces (NFS, CIFS) for cloud hosts and Docker containers, featuring unlimited capacity, high performance, multi-client sharing and high availability.

File System

A file system is a means by which an operating system organizes and manages data stored on physical media.

NFS Protocol

The NFS (NetworkFileSystem) protocol is mainly used for Linux and Unix clients. CFS currently supports the NFS V4.1 protocol.

SMB/CIFS Protocol

The SMB (Server Message Block) protocol is an application-layer communication protocol for sharing network resources introduced by Microsoft. The CIFS (Common Internet File System) protocol is a public or open version of the SMB protocol, which can better support the access of Windows clients. CFS currently supports the main functions of SMB 1, SMB 2 and SMB 3.

Mount target

The file system can generate special access addresses for users' access requirements on different private or classic networks. Each access address is a mount target. The user mounts the corresponding CFS locally by specifying the domain name of the mount target.

Permission group

Permission group is used to configure the permission information of accessing file system through different mount points, including authorized IP address, read-write operation permission, etc.
