+Azure File Share storage offers fully managed file shares in the cloud that are
+accessible via the industry standard Server Message Block (SMB) protocol. Azure
+file shares can be mounted concurrently by cloud or on-premises deployments of
+Windows, Linux, and macOS. Additionally, Azure file shares can be cached on
+Windows Servers with Azure File Sync for fast access near where the data is
+being used.
+
+Azure file shares can be used to:
+- Replace or supplement on-premises file servers
+- "Lift and shift" applications
+- Simplify cloud development with shared application settings, diagnostic share,
+  and Dev/Test/Debug tools
