Amazon Elastic File System (EFS)
This tool is very well suited if you want to work in the AWS ecosystem along with other AWS tools as it easily integrates with them. This works very fast for distributed systems. Sometimes, you can face compatibility issues with the operating system so my advice would be to check that before the implementation.

Clarify before hand any additional charges for remote hand and arrangement/SLA for remote hand. Negotiate well on these terms as they tend to be more flexible around this. Clarify shipping and handling charges if any.

Amazon Elastic File System (EFS)

Price and facility equipment, location of the hosting facility factor into the decision to renew

The documentation is sufficient for setting up and it is basic NFS for mounting so not much support is required. I have not had any issues to warrant a request with AWS support.

Navisite's rates were better and they seemed to have more SQL Server expertise. This was about 5 years ago and it may not be the case anymore

- Cost savings by not having a full-time DBA on staff - saving of at least 50K a year
- Data team not on call 24/7
- Navisite team will try to fix issue if possible - e.g. shrink log files that have grown
