Overview
NFS Server is a server application that enables users to mount remote directories on their respective servers. The NFS protocol is one of several distributed file system standards for network-attached storage (NAS).
With NFS Server, the admin can mount full or a part of the file system on the server. The mounted partial part of the file system is accessible to clients as per permissions assigned on every file which can be either read-only or read-write rights. The requests between a server and client are routed through Remote Procedure Calls (RPCs).
Using this Network File System Server server, you can transfer files between computers running Windows and other non-Windows operating systems, such as Linux or UNIX
The NFS Server solution is installed on top of Windows Server 2016 has performed tests by engineers and proven its operability on AWS Cloud successfully.
