Relationships Between SFS and Other Services

**Table 1** Related services
Function	Related Service	Reference
A file system and the ECSs must belong to the same project. File systems are mounted to shared paths for data sharing.	Elastic Cloud Server (ECS)	Mounting an NFS File System to ECSs (Linux)
CCE is a highly scalable, enterprise-class hosted Kubernetes service for you to run containers and applications. With CCE, you can easily deploy, manage, and scale containerized applications in the cloud. You can use SFS file systems as persistent storage for containers and mount the file systems to containers when creating a workload.	Cloud Container Engine (CCE)	Mounting an NFS File System to ECSs (Linux)
VPC provisions an isolated virtual network environment defined and managed by yourself, improving the security of cloud resources and simplifying network deployment. An ECS cannot access file systems in a different VPC. Before using SFS, assign the file system and the ECSs to the same VPC.	Virtual Private Cloud (VPC)	Creating a File System
VPCEP is a cloud service that provides secure and private channels to connect your VPCs to VPC endpoint services. It allows you to plan networks flexibly without having to use EIPs. General Purpose File System communicates with ECSs through VPC endpoints, so that ECSs can access file systems.	VPC Endpoint (VPCEP)	Configuring a VPC Endpoint
IAM is an enterprise-level self-service cloud resource management system. It provides user identity management and access control functions. When employees in your enterprise need to use SFS, the enterprise administrator can use IAM to create users and control these users' permissions on enterprise resources.	Identity and Access Management (IAM)	Permissions
Once you have subscribed to SFS, you can monitor its performance without installing any plug-ins and view monitored metrics, such as the read bandwidth, write bandwidth, and read and write bandwidth on Cloud Eye.	Cloud Eye	Monitoring
Cloud Trace Service (CTS) allows you to collect, store, and query cloud resource operation records and use these records for security analysis, compliance auditing, resource tracking, and fault locating. With CTS, you can record operations associated with SFS for later query, audit, and backtrack operations.	Cloud Trace Service (CTS)	Auditing
