Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS) is an cloud storage service provided by AWS which provides scalable, elastic concurrent with some restrictions[2][3] and encrypted[4] file storage for use with AWS Cloud services and on-premises resources.[5] Amazon EFS is built to be able to grown and shrink automatically as you add and remove files. Amazon EFS supports Network File System versions 4.0 and 4.1 (NFSv4) protocol[6] and control access to files through Portable Operating System Interface (POSIX) permissions[7].

Data consistency

Amazon EFS provides open-after-close consistency semantics that applications expect from NFS.[8]
