Summary
Add fast and flexible NFS-based file storage to your IBM Cloud portfolio. Get total control and help minimize costs with flash-backed architecture. Create file shares from 20GB to 12TB—and provision it all with a variety of flexible and power-based options.
Choose Endurance tiers for simple, predefined, per-GB pricing—ideal for workloads without well defined performance requirements.
Or, build a fine-tuned environment with allocated IOPS with Performance options—ideal for well-understood workload requirements that fall outside of the available Endurance tiers.
Features
Flexible customization
Customize your storage capacity and number of IOPs based on your workload demands, then increase capacity and adjust IOPS on the fly without having to provision new storage.
Durability
Avoid data loss during maintenance or failures without creating system-level RAID arrays.
Snapshot and replication
Efficient, point-in-time snapshots are captured non-disruptively and engineered to minimize space.
Encryption for data-at-rest
Protect your data with provider managed encryption at rest at no additional charge.
Volume Duplication
Quickly and easily create a new, independent volume with a clone of your data from a snapshot.
Highly available connectivity
Shares are exposed to authorized devices over routed TCP/IP connections for resiliency.
Global footprint
Block volumes provisioned alongside of your cloud servers on data centers around the world.
Flash-backed storage
File storage provisioned with 2 IOPS/GB or higher is flash-backed for faster performance.
