Mathieu Drouin · Answer

File systems 
 Network File System (NFS) protocol is supported. 
 Server Message Block (SMB) protocol is unsupported. 
 
 File storage 
 The application server and Appian engines are installed on and store run-time content on the file system, although they store data in independent directories and do not use the file system to share data with each other. Shared storage (Windows or NFS) is required when running a distributed environment with multiple application servers or multiple engines different servers.
