So I noticed state files can be stored locally on your machine however, if your company requires state files to be store on a remote file server is that possible as well? How does the state store mechanism work exactly?

Yes, we’ve stored them on AWS S3 Buckets and Azure Storage accounts for example

Thanks, I'm really interested if you can store the state on a remote fileshare rather than an S3 Bucket or Azure Storage Account.

I don't see any issues with the
file
backend with your usecase, that being said it won't handle concurrency

That makes sense. Im trying to make sure I have an answer to the obvious remarks such as Pulumi SAAS doesnt meet our compliance requirements so how do we do X?
