samba - Jun 2021 - Mount NFS export over the Internet and export locally using Samba?

I have Linux servers in two locations it has become practical for us to 
share various files over the Internet for use locally in both locations

It occurs to me the simplest way to do this is to export the files I 
want to share via NFS using ssh and limit the export to a single server 
then share the files using our existing Samba server.

Is that a realistic way to accomplish what I want to achieve?
If not what should I be looking at?

I use:

a) for a full 'internet' site, i've loaded a nextcloud instance and
 using 'external storage' feature for CIFS, i reshare samba with
nextcloud; the only drawback is that you cannot with CIFS 'share' files
with nextcloud, AFAIK.

b) for a two sites conf, where there's a stable link between them
 (VPN/MPLS), i've setup glusterfs.

Why use NFS ?

Why not just use SSH ?

Or something like rsync ?

Whatever way you do it, I would only do it over a VPN tunnel.
