We had compared nfs of Azure in the article, I believe cifs/samba should be much worse.

From your article "For example, Azure Files files and folders have default permissions of 0777, with root as owner, and it does not support modification" that sounds like cifs, I can't tell you much about Azure Files NFS but I do know they support basic file rights and setting of uid/gid, my company uses them in Azure for SAP.

Azure has Azure Files and Azrue NetApp Files, the later one is provided from NetApp. Azure Files was used in the article, maybe you are using NetApp Files?
We will update the article to make it clear, thanks!

yeah I forgot there is Azure NetApp Files as well, Azure has at least 3 NFS implementations :) But no I was talking about Azure Files NFS https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/files/files-...

one more thing, there are two NFS implementations, one v3 and one v4; the v3 is on top of blobs, the v4 one is on top of azure files. we use the v4 one, never tried the blob one :)
