Configuration Management solutions: Higher quality code from the start
Painless infrastructure configuration? You got it. By integrating with tools already in your DevOps pipeline, now developers, testing, QA, and operations teams can consume infrastructure resources as code.
Why NetApp for configuration management?
A more collaborative DevOps culture is here
By integrating with configuration and resource management tools, including Ansible and Terraform, NetApp frees your operations team from time-consuming coding and quality assurance (finally, right?).
Automatic provisioning of test environments gives developers the speed they need to innovate faster than ever before, while operations maintains the visibility to understand resource consumption and anticipate future needs. And just like that, errors are prevented earlier in the development process.
Automated
Deliver infrastructure as code with your choice of 3rd party tools
Scalable
Eliminate error prone handoffs by delivering agile but consistent environments
Secure
Deliver developer resource on-demand while maintaining visibility
Ansible
We’re all about making configuration management awesome with Ansible. In fact, NetApp is one of the original six Red Hat Certified Supported Module vendors. Our modules can be found in Ansible libraries, and our portfolio is supported with these modules: ONTAP, Element and E-Series.
If you’re worried about the time and money you’ve already invested in OnCommand Workflow Automation (WFA), there’s good news. Configuring most, if not all, of your WFA workflows in Ansible is very simple. For instructions on how to get started using Ansible with NetApp, see the five part series:
- Part 1: Get started with NetApp + Ansible
- Part 2: Update NetApp Modules
- Part 3: Understanding Playbooks
- Part 4: First Playbook Example
- Part 5: Complete Workflow

Keep your data safe and sound
Unprotected data is a disaster waiting to happen. And traditional data protection approaches aren’t keeping pace with IT complexity and growing threats. With NetApp, you can be confident that your data is secure on premises and in the cloud without sacrificing application performance. Plan backups and disaster recovery. Increase privacy and compliance. Prevent ransomware. Stay ahead of emerging threats. Smart, right?
Precisely what is needed
Digitization of measurement and cloud-based data collection is changing how Testo creates testing equipment. A reliable data infrastructure gives engineers and software designers always-available access. Testo developers save time and shorten development cycles.
When you want to operate IT with a future like Testo, my advice is to take a close look at your needs and the possibilities of NetApp on-premises, hybrid, and in the cloud. It’s worth it.
