16. Azure Files - Scenarios
• Share data across VMs and applications
• Multiple writers, multiple readers using standard file system
semantics.
• Share settings throughout services
• VMs can read settings and files from a common, shared
location. These can be updated externally via REST.
• Dev/Test/Debug
• Very useful to have a shared location for installing applications,
setting up VMs, running tools, and keeping notes while
developing, testing, and debugging cloud services.
