Media Company in Europe
Innovating with Cloud-based Services by Using NetApp StorageGRID and NetApp FabricPool
The client has been both a NetApp partner and user for 15 years. NetApp ONTAP technology serves and protects 24/7 enterprise applications such as VMware, SAP HANA, and SAP on Oracle Database. NetApp StorageGRID helped our client to start backup as a service and move media content to convenient S3 storage and into the cloud. Adding NetApp FabricPool automates content tiering and increases cost effectiveness.
For me, NetApp benefits are data management, ease of use, and support. Active IQ is brilliant. I have never seen a vendor with such proactive support.
Although the company is committed to host as much as possible on their premises, they also need cloud burst to cover short-term events and service peaks.
“For us, the cloud is a model to handle elasticity at a constant price. We want to sell our services and become the cloud for our clients. With cloud burst we can serve our clients any time, and quickly. Our cloud of choice is always the cheapest. For our customers, it’s the price that counts.“
