You can now attach Network File Storage shares to multiple VPC networks, and expose specific subdirectories to single VPC networks by creating access points.
A share can connect to up to 10 VPC networks in the same region. Access points restrict clients to a specific path within the share, and are isolated from one another so that clients on one cannot see the directories governed by another. This lets you host multiple tenants on a single share, each scoped to their own directory. For details, see How to Create and Delete Network File Storage Access Points.

Network File Storage now offers two performance tiers. The new Standard Tier provides cost-effective shared storage for general-purpose workloads. The existing High Performance Tier delivers higher throughput that scales with share size for data-intensive workloads like AI/ML training and high-throughput analytics.
Network File Storage is generally available in ATL1, NYC2, and AMS3. For details, see NFS features and pricing.
