# Overview

CCE allows you to mount a volume created from a Scalable File Service (SFS) file system to a container to store data persistently. SFS volumes are commonly used in ReadWriteMany scenarios, such as media processing, content management, big data analysis, and workload process analysis.

#### Description

- Standard file protocols: You can mount file systems as volumes to servers, the same as using local directories.
- Data sharing: The same file system can be mounted to multiple servers, so that data can be shared.
- Private network: User can access data only in private networks of data centers.
- Capacity and performance: The capacity of a single file system is high (PB level) and the performance is excellent (ms-level read/write I/O latency).
- Use cases: Deployments/StatefulSets in the ReadWriteMany mode and jobs created for high-performance computing (HPC), media processing, content management, web services, big data analysis, and workload process analysis
