It is a very common requirement or is a business/IT problem to centralize and manage their file servers. For SMB, they want to have a proper replica of their one or two file servers in cloud. For enterprises, they struggle with maintenance and backup of file servers in branch offices. With Mismo Managed File Services, we help you centralize & consolidate your file servers using the power of Microsoft Azure

Why Azure File share?

Centralize the file shares in cloud and do not worry about the branch file servers
Replace on-premises file share with Azure file share without any compatibility issues as Azure file share uses SMB & NFS protocols
Serverless file share which means no hidden IaaS VMs or NAS filers
Choose from different performance tiers according to requirement for optimized TCO
Azure files enables both Classic and Hybrid Lift and Shift scenarios
Azure file shares can be used as persistent volumes for stateful containers
Applications running in Azure can access data in the file share
Store hot data on-premises and rest on Azure file in a hybrid model
Can choose from different Redundancy options (LRS, ZRS, GRS, GZRS, and RA - GRS)
