+## Supported FSx for NetApp ONTAP capabilities
+
+The following FSx for NetApp ONTAP functionalities have been validated for use with Amazon EVS:
+
+Capability | Description  
+---|---  
+External NFS v3 datastores |  Mount FSx for ONTAP volumes as NFS v3 datastores for VMware vSphere on Amazon EVS.  
+External NFS v4.1 datastores |  Mount FSx for ONTAP volumes as NFS v4.1 datastores for VMware vSphere on Amazon EVS, providing enhanced security and performance features over NFS v3.  
+External NVMe datastores |  Use FSx for ONTAP as NVMe-based external datastores for VMware vSphere on Amazon EVS, delivering high-performance block storage for demanding workloads.  
+iSCSI datastores |  Configure FSx for ONTAP as iSCSI-based VMFS datastores for VMware vSphere on Amazon EVS.  
+Guest-mounted iSCSI disks |  Present FSx for ONTAP iSCSI LUNs directly to guest virtual machines running on Amazon EVS as in-guest connected storage.  
+NetApp SnapCenter Plug-in for VMware vSphere (SCV) |  Use NetApp SnapCenter Plug-in for VMware vSphere to provide application-consistent backup and restore operations for VMs and datastores running on Amazon EVS.  
+Deployment using EVS Expansion VLAN |  Deploy FSx for ONTAP external datastores using an Amazon EVS Expansion VLAN for dedicated storage network traffic, providing network isolation and improved performance.
