How Does EFS Work?
EFS can be created using the EC2-Instance where it will be created in a specific region and distributed across multiple availability zones for the purpose of high availability and durability. You can choose the EFS based on the I/Ops you are going to perform.
Once the EFS is created you need to set up mount targets which will provide the connectivity to your EFS file system. Following are some of the resources which you can mount on EFS.
- Amazon EC2.
- Amazon ECS.
- Amazon EKS.
- AWS Fargate.
- AWS lambda and some other servers.
