What is Azure Files?
Azure Files, from Microsoft's Azure suite of products, is a serverless enterprise-grade cloud file sharing service, providing managed file shares in the cloud that are accessible via SMB and NFS protocols. Azure Files shares can be mounted concurrently by cloud or on-premises deployments of Windows, Linux, and macOS. Azure Files shares can also be cached on Windows Servers with Azure File Sync for faster access near where the data is being used.
