This article mainly introduces the services provided by nfs, which have certain reference value. Interested friends can refer to it. I hope you will gain a lot after reading this article. Let Xiaobian take you to understand it together.

The service provided by nfs is "shared services." NFS allows a common file system to be shared among multiple users and provides the advantage of data centralization to minimize the storage space required. NFS can be used for remote access and sharing of network files across different types of computers, operating systems, network architectures, and transport protocol environments.

The service provided by nfs is "shared services."

NFS (Network File System) is one of the most popular shared file systems on heterogeneous platforms. It is mainly used in UNIX environments. Originally developed by Sun Microsystems, it now supports file sharing between different types of systems over the network, widely used in heterogeneous operating system platforms such as FreeBSD, SCO, Solaris, etc., allowing a system to share directories and files with others over the network. By using NFS, users and programs can access files on remote systems as if they were local files, enabling nodes on each computer to consume online resources as easily as local resources. In other words, NFS can be used for network file remote access and sharing across different types of computers, operating systems, network architectures, and transport protocol environments.

NFS works using a client/server architecture, consisting of a client program and a server program. A server program provides access to the file system to other computers, a process called output. When NFS clients access shared file systems, they "ship" them out of the NFS server. Files are usually transferred in blocks. Its size is 8KB (although it might split operations into smaller size slices). The NFS transport protocol is used to communicate file access and sharing between servers and clients, allowing clients to remotely access data stored on storage devices.

Features:

(1) Provide transparent file access and file transfer;

(2) Easy to expand new resources or software without changing the existing working environment;

(3) High performance, flexible configuration.

Thank you for reading this article carefully. I hope the article "What services nfs provides" shared by Xiaobian will help everyone. At the same time, I hope everyone will support you a lot and pay attention to the industry information channel. More relevant knowledge is waiting for you to learn!
