Hey everyone! Is it possible to mount the new AWS S3 filesystems on a Windows machine? I've heard AWS uses EFS for this, which I believe is only compatible with Linux systems. Is there any workaround to get the S3 filesystem mounted on Windows EC2 instances?

Be cautious! EFS can get really expensive really quickly. It might not be the best choice for everyone.

Setting up EFS is straightforward, and in my experience, using S3 with the mount point on Linux wasn't very stable long-term. Just a heads up!

Unfortunately, it's not officially supported, and you're correct that it operates as a modified version of EFS under the hood.
