Initial situation
Enterprise file-service platform design
Files were spread across servers with inconsistent permissions, duplicates and unreliable recovery. Capacity growth required hardware-replacement outages.

Engineer’s comment
We separated hot data, archive and backups, allowing each layer to scale independently instead of using equally expensive capacity for every file.
Customer testimonial
Shared folders became one service with clear permissions, and adding capacity no longer interrupts users.
