## EFS Volumes

Convox now supports shared volume mounts via EFS. Any Convox process can now share files with other processes of the same type by declaring shared volumes in the `volumes:` section of `docker-compose.yml`. ([#822](https://github.com/convox/rack/pull/822))

See the [Volumes](https://convox.com/docs/volumes) doc for more details.

## General Enhancements

- Container disk size is now configurable with the `ContainerDisk` app parameter. ([#854](https://github.com/convox/rack/pull/854))
- `convox start` code synchronization now works with single file `COPY`. ([#853](https://github.com/convox/rack/pull/853))
- `convox install` will now use the AWS CLI for authentication if it is available. ([#847](https://github.com/convox/rack/pull/847))
- Convox now terminates instances using the AutoScaling API rather than terminating directly. Thanks to [@mwarkentin](https://github.com/mwarkentin) ([#865](https://github.com/convox/rack/pull/865))
