Is EFS worth the trouble?
Overall Satisfaction with Amazon Elastic File System (EFS)
Pros
- Allows for seamless transfer of user experience from one application to another
- Allows for storage of user-uploaded images to be addressed over different servers and applications
- EFS is scalable so it can be implemented from a small userbase set up through enterprise applications
Cons
- Compatibility issues are always something to be on the lookout for before implementation of new technologies and systems
- It's difficult for new employees to grasp the technology coming in from small server cloud applications. It could stand to be simpler.
- Sharing of files sometimes doesn't go always as expected.
- Cost is always a paramount issue when looking at ROI
- It is fast and if that's what you need for your implementation - you probably will not find a better solution
- Expertise in EFS is sometimes hard to come by so it's best to look at your employee's ability to grasp this technology. Otherwise, it's a pretty steep learning curve.
