Although hyperconverged infrastructures work for smaller installations, their design neglects the ability to span and scale a choice of resources across the data center and multiple public clouds. We designed NetApp® HCI, a hybrid cloud infrastructure, to deliver a public cloud consumption experience with simplicity, dynamic scale, and operational efficiency to enterprise hybrid multiclouds. […]
Your organization is making the move to private cloud. The decision has been made to migrate some key applications to a private cloud powered by VMware and NetApp to deliver the agility of a public cloud with the power, performance, and security of an isolated infrastructure on dedicated hardware. This is a pivotal step […]
With the increasing demand for graphical content, delivering high-performance end-user service can be a challenge. NetApp® HCI powered by NVIDIA T4 GPUs and Quadro Virtual Data Center Workstation (Quadro vDWS) software accelerates your virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) workloads. Your business can improve the end-user experience and cost-effectively scale VDI. This week at VMworld, we’re […]
We are excited to announce NKS on VMware, regardless of infrastructure, at VMworld 2019! Matt Baldwin did a great blog unpacking that announcement, including why we are doing it and the most significant functionality for our VMware based customers. NetApp Kubernetes Service (NKS) has been rapidly gaining adoption in the public cloud recently, for all the […]

About a year ago, I started working on transforming my organisation’s entire infrastructure and data management strategy. During this time, we have had many pitches from all sorts of organisations who claim they can solve all our problems. I have also had many strange stares when I say I am not looking for the cloud […]
One of the challenges of putting out an innovative product like NetApp® HCI is that it differs from existing market definitions. We’ve had plenty of discussions over the last few years about “what is HCI?” and “where do converged and hyperconverged infrastructures begin and end?” These conversations were interesting, but they didn’t help customers solve […]
The elixir powering today’s innovation increasingly draws from the strengths of cloud and fuels it with rich and plentiful data. But while well established; cloud paradoxically is easy to consume from, alas hard to create. And of course, cloud isn’t just one thing or one place. There’s choice amongst the public offerings, several options for […]
For the past decade, as organizations have been rethinking their approach to delivering desktops to end users, many have turned to a virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) environment. An initial driver to VDI was the focus on reducing the per-desktop cost. Along with lower cost, IT teams also had to make sure that end users didn’t […]
Last week, at Red Hat Summit 2019, we announced a new solution developed in conjunction with Red Hat: NetApp® HCI for Private Cloud with Red Hat. It’s a really exciting solution because it delivers a modern, open-source-based, true cloud on premises to enable modern agile software DevOps activities. Plus, because it’s based on NetApp HCI, […]
Enterprises are working to rapidly transform not only how they do business in today’s cloud-enabled world, but also how they can use technology to further drive positive change. It’s obvious now that the public cloud is not the final end state for infrastructure and that private cloud has reemerged as a critical element of any […]
