Hi, Developer Evangelist at GitLab here. Scalability is a great point. With 13.0 we have added Gitaly clusters removing the dependency on NFS, whilst also improving high availability. Gitaly is the backend daemon for accessing Git repositories where GitLab communicates with. https://about.gitlab.com/releases/2020/05/22/gitlab-13-0-released/#gitaly-cluster-for-high-availability-git-storage https://about.gitlab.com/releases/2020/05/22/gitlab-13-0-rel... NFS support in Gitaly has been deprecated and will be removed in 14.0 next year. https://about.gitlab.com/releases/2020/05/22/gitlab-13-0-released/#nfs-for-git-repository-storage-deprecated https://about.gitlab.com/releases/2020/05/22/gitlab-13-0-rel... There are environments and use cases for NFS which are being discussed in this epic: https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/1489 https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/1489
