Overview

Secure File Sharing

Control user access with permissions.

Control User Access
It allows you to control all users’ access by limiting permissions to mount and operate with files or granting access to the new share. Only servers with the appropriate credentials can access file sharing.

Integration

Integrates With Block Storage

Users can enjoy a simplified integration with OpenStack’s block storage.

Block Storage
Manila integrates with OpenStack’s block storage by installing the necessary software, enabling any designated system to have access to the file share.

Performance

Efficient and Performance Conscious Processing

Save time and only download the files you need.

Save Time and Processing Power
Instead of having to download each file in its entirety, users can download only the ones they need, which is especially useful for big data use cases as the system can read part of the file, distributing the workload.
