====== EFS (Elastic File System) ====== **What it is:** A managed file system that can be mounted by multiple instances at the same time (NFS). **What it’s for:** * Shared storage for fleets of EC2 instances or containers. * Content management, shared app files. **Key ideas:** * Unlike EBS (attached to one instance), EFS can be shared by many. * Typically used inside a VPC with mount targets per AZ. **Exam cues:** * “multiple EC2 instances need shared file system” → EFS. **Hard words:** * *mount* /maʊnt/: gắn (file system vào máy) * *shared* /ʃerd/: dùng chung * *fleet* /fliːt/: một nhóm lớn (nhiều máy)
