Currently SaaS Boost only supports Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP (FSxN) file systems for Windows based services. One of ONTAP's many strengths is its support for both the SMB protocol as well as the NTFS protocol allowing a heterogeneous set of clients to communicate with the file system using their native protocol. This feature would enable selecting FSx as a shared file system type for Linux services as an alternative choice to Amazon EFS. Note that FSxN is still only compatible with the EC2 launch type, so this choice will not be available for services using the Fargate launch type.
