Is it time to reconsider first-class Windows support for EFS. #248

EFS is a wonderful product. Now that the stunnel proxy has been migrated to a custom Rust binary, I'm wondering why Windows Server would be hard to support as a client:

  • Has native NFS support
  • Rust can compile to Windows and so the existing tunnel support shouldn't be complex to port
  • AWS CLI tools are already available on Windows and so support for the core API integrations are likely already available

Am I missing anything?

FYI, I'm currently looking at spinning up additional Linux systems to act as an interface but it does add overhead, particularly to maintain encryption end-to-end.
