Overview

The cnfs-controller add-on uses Container Network File System (CNFS) to improve performance and Quality of Service (QoS) for NAS and OSS persistent volumes. It also solves common problems of traditional shared file systems, such as inaccurate capacity quota enforcement and the inability to recover accidentally deleted files.
