EFS is not meant to be a replacement for S3, it's a separate service of its own with pros and cons. A couple of differences: EFS is only accessible within a VPC in a region and requires mounting to be used, think of it as a NAS. The IO speeds out the gate for EFS is incredibly slow and speeds up as you put in more data, but nowhere close to the speed of EBS. The benefit is that you can have multiple compute resources mount the EFS and have one ground truth source of data storage. S3 on the other hand is meant to be an object store. Although it looks like a virtual cloud folder, underneath is not how it works and it's not meant to be mounted. You can provision permissions and access to each S3 bucket and object inside. S3 is meant to be used in a Write Once Read Many model.
