Premium file shares are suitable for a wide variety of workloads like databases, web site hosting, and development environments. Premium file shares can be used with both Server Message Block (SMB) and Network File System (NFS) protocols. Premium file shares are deployed in the **FileStorage storage account** kind and are only available in a provisioned billing model. For more information on the provisioned billing model for premium file shares, see [Understanding provisioning for premium file shares](../articles/storage/files/understanding-billing.md#provisioned-model).
