Features and Benefits

Features

  • SSD Storage: Supports swift data retrieval and reliable data storage.

  • Storage Size: The minimum cluster size is 2 TiB and the maximum cluster size is 42 TiB. It is a usable space; hence, you do not have to reserve free space for optimal performance.

  • NFSv4.2: The latest NFS protocol version, NFSv4.2, allows standard read and write operations directly to storage.

  • Encryption at rest: Provides encryption at rest, by default.

  • Root squash security: Network File Storage's built-in security mechanism reduces the risk of unauthorized root-level access from the client machine to the NFS server. Enabling this feature prevents superuser privileges to the root user on a client machine. It also prevents potential attacks on the NFS server when the client machine is compromised.

Benefits

  • High Performance & Reliability: NFSv4.2 protocol provides high availability and durability and the following benefits:

    • Reduced protocol overhead with compound operations and caching.

    • Efficient file operations with minimal server interaction.

    • Live data movement without interruption.

    • Detailed file-level access and performance telemetry.

  • Seamless Management: Benefit from proactive IT infrastructure management and maintenance with IONOS’s managed Network File Storage.

  • Efficient Data Sharing: Easily distribute and manage data across multiple VMs within a VDC, with centralized data organization and fine-grained POSIX access control.
