So finally wait is over, Amazon unfold this in San Francisco, CA seminar.
So what is Amazon EFS (Elastic File System) ?
It’s new generation storage for the Amazon cloud lover (like me!!!)
- Fully managed File System for EC2
- Grows to petabyte scale , elastically (No need for pre-reserve , pay as you use)
- It’s SSD based (Solid State Based) , so very low latency and high through
- Highly available and durable
- Automatically data replication across available zones (AZs) (Same way S3 do)
- Support NFSv4
Not only has that still there are some other features as well
- Throughout and IOPS scale automatically
- Support for thousands of concurrent NFS connections
- Consistent Low latency access.
Still it's in Preview but I am hoping by next winter they will launch full fledged service.
