What is Netshare?
Docker Volume Netshare is a Docker volume plugin that allows Docker containers to mount network file systems like NFS, AWS EFS, and Samba/CIFS shares. It solves the problem of accessing shared, persistent storage across containers without relying on host bind mounts, enabling scalable and portable storage solutions in containerized environments.

Developers choose Docker Volume Netshare because it provides a unified, plugin-based interface to multiple network storage protocols, integrates directly with Docker's volume system, and eliminates the complexity of manual mount configurations inside containers.
