Volume Services is a collection of bosh releases, service brokers, and drivers for management, installation and access to various file system types which can be mounted to a Cloud Foundry Foundation. These components exist to allow applications running on Cloud Foundry to have access to a persistent filesystem.
Volume services where implemented by extending the Open Service Broker API, enabling broker authors to create data services which have a file system based interface. Before this CF supported Shared Volumes, which is a distributed filesystems, such as NFS-based systems, which allow all instances of an application to share the same mounted volume simultaneously and access it concurrently.
Volume service added two new concepts to Cloud Foundry: Volume Mounts for Service Brokers and Volume Drivers for Diego Cells.
