Hybrid cloud solutions
: Unified experience, simplified everything
Changing business needs require a hybrid multicloud platform with “as a service” simplicity and complete compatibility everywhere. With a common approach and experience, NetApp helps you leverage the cloud for faster, more dynamic delivery of services and frictionless data movement.
Build agility into your hybrid cloud strategy
Your wish list is long: achieve the right balance of resources on premises and in the cloud, simplify infrastructure management and monitoring, control costs, reduce risk, and protect data across your hybrid cloud or multicloud environment. Guess what? You really can have it all—without refactoring applications, breaking workflows, or creating vendor lock-in.
Why NetApp for hybrid cloud?
What if you could move your data and workloads wherever you wanted while managing everything with ease, security, agility, and compliance? Enter NetApp. We give you the freedom to manage applications and data everywhere across hybrid multicloud environments. Our data management and storage solutions integrate with the world’s leading cloud providers, giving you one consistent environment, unified data services, and centralized management that enables visibility both on premises and in the cloud. Let’s do this.
Hybrid cloud use cases
Whether you want to migrate data and production applications or extend your data center to the cloud for backup and recovery, here are six ways you can make the shift to hybrid cloud today.
Data protection
Back up and restore data from your premises to the public cloud, consolidate datastores, and create disaster recovery environments in one or more public clouds.
Data security and compliance
Store data in specific cloud locations to meet sovereignty, security, and compliance requirements. Improve data visibility and protect against ransomware.
Data tiering
Reduce real estate space, infrastructure management, and cost by automating movement of infrequently accessed “cold” data from your premises to cloud storage.
Hybrid workloads
Integrate on-premises and public cloud storage to support your enterprise apps. Reduce system administration costs, protect data, and simplify operations with unified management across your hybrid cloud.
DevOps
Speed application development with a hybrid multicloud environment so that you can release new applications faster and support continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD). No retooling required.
Cloud bursting
Temporarily move data (or clones of data) from on-premises environments to the cloud, or between clouds, for dynamic workload flexibility and data processing.
Great partners make great hybrid clouds
NetApp and VMware have spent the past 20 years defining the virtualized data center, delivering the most trusted storage and virtualized infrastructure solutions around. When you combine NetApp® storage with VMware, you get the integrations and consistency you need to move your storage-heavy, data-intensive workloads to the cloud.
Unlock the best of cloud
We were asked by the world's biggest hyperscalers—AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud—to build data management and storage solutions in their clouds because of our success, reliability, and uptime.
Microsoft Azure
“The work we are doing together to support our customers’ need for hybrid cloud infrastructure has been breakthrough work.”
– Satya Nadella, CEO, Microsoft
Google Cloud
“We are very happy to be working with NetApp to deliver joint solutions where we meet the customer on their cloud journey, where they are.”
– Thomas Kurian, CEO, Google Cloud
AWS
“It’s great to have our engineers—and the synergies of our two companies—going all the time.”
– Bill Vass, VP of Engineering, AWS
Consistency, consistency, consistency
They say that consistency is the key to success, and we couldn’t agree more. Now you can buy, deploy, operate, and optimize your distributed data resources across your hybrid multicloud as a single unified experience.
Buy
Get consistent storage-as-a-service consumption so that you can offload storage operation tasks and better plan, predict, and manage your budgets.
Deploy and operate
Combine NetApp ONTAP® data management software with the NetApp Cloud Manager single interface for consistent data services and operations across your hybrid cloud.
Optimize
Consistent, AIOps-driven maintenance improves efficiency and performance with less human intervention. Get real-time, full-stack visibility into your multivendor, multicloud environment.
We love a good win-win-win
Analyst firm GigaOm recently ranked NetApp #1 across its three Radar reports: Primary Storage for Large Enterprises, Enterprise Scale-Out File Systems, and Cloud File Systems. As the “clear winner,” our “unified platform with ONTAP, unmatched cloud integration, and rich set of data services” make us a smart choice for building your hybrid cloud.
