By default, a scale-out file system has a single primary tier, which is the on-premises storage for the scale-out file system. You can add a cloud service as an additional tier. After a cloud tier is configured, you can move data between the tiers of the scale-out file system as needed. If you want to specify repeatable rules for maintaining data on the tiers, you can set up a policy for the file system.
