Explanation
Use the File Storage service when your application or workload includes big data and analytics, media processing, or content management, and you require Portable Operating System Interface (POSIX)-compliant file system access semantics and concurrently accessible storage. The File Storage service is designed to meet the needs of applications and users that need an enterprise file system across a wide range of use cases, including the following:
General Purpose File Storage: Access to an unlimited pool of file systems to manage growth of structured and unstructured data.
Big Data and Analytics: Run analytic workloads and use shared file systems to store persistent data.
Lift and Shift of Enterprise Applications: Migrate existing Oracle applications that need NFS storage, such as Oracle E-Business Suite and PeopleSoft.
Databases and Transactional Applications: Run test and development workloads with Oracle, MySQL, or other databases.
Backups, Business Continuity, and Disaster Recovery: Host a secondary copy of relevant file systems from on premises to the cloud for backup and disaster recovery purposes.
MicroServices and Docker: Deliver stateful persistence for containers. Easily scale as your container-based environments grow.
