  Cloud servers are flexible, scalable, and suitable for a variety of uses and application scenarios. Cloud servers can also be used for file sharing, but the specific sight method depends on your needs and the operating system you choose. Here are some common file sharing methods for reference!

  Using Network File System (NFS):

  If you are running a Unix-like or Linux operating system, you can configure NFS to share folders. Other computers can access and share files through the NFS protocol. This is very common in internal network environments.

  Using Server Message Block (SMB):

  If your cloud server runs a Windows operating system, you can configure SMB sharing, which is the standard protocol for Windows file sharing. Files can be easily accessed and shared with other Windows or SMB-enabled devices.

  Using FTP server:

  ​You can install FTP server software on the cloud server to allow other users to connect and upload/download files through the FTP client. FTP servers are often used for large file transfers.

  Using cloud storage services:

  You can also consider using cloud storage services (such as Amazon S3. Google Cloud Storage, Microsoft Azure Blob Storage, etc.), which provide secure file storage and sharing functions. You can upload files to a cloud storage bucket and provide access to other users.

  Use collaboration tools:

  If you need to collaborate and share files, consider using collaboration tools such as Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive, etc. These tools allow multiple users to edit and share files online.

  Develop your own file sharing application:

  If you have specific file sharing needs, you can develop your own file sharing application and use a web interface or API to upload, download, and share files.

  No matter which method you choose, you need to ensure appropriate security measures to protect shared files from unauthorized access. In addition, you also need to choose the appropriate storage capacity and performance based on your needs to meet your file sharing needs.
