Enterprise Applications:
Delivering Advanced Data Management for Your Application Requirements
The NetApp ONTAP Cloud storage data management service allows you to build an enterprise storage service on Amazon Web Services (AWS) Elastic Cloud Compute (EC2) with Elastic Block Storage (EBS) with the flexibility to pay for only what you need, when you need it. Whether you are looking to move traditional database applications or legacy NAS applications to the cloud, ONTAP Cloud provides data management that helps solve your pain points:
- Grow active dataset while minimizing your overall storage resource footprint with ONTAP storage efficiency features
- Get advanced data protection with SnapMirror technology from data center to cloud and region-to-region replication
- Secure your data with NetApp managed data at rest encryption where you own the keys
Your data management experience on ONTAP Cloud is simplified through NetApp OnCommand® Cloud Manager tools. Cloud Manager gives you a single interface to manage all of your ONTAP Cloud data storage environments. Whether it is to deploy your storage environment in minutes or to monitor your resource spend, Cloud Manager provides the management to make your cloud data experience pleasant.
ONTAP Cloud , based on the NetApp ONTAP storage operating system, allows you to grow with your application needs. As your need for application performance outpaces what cloud storage can provide, you can simply transition to NetApp Private Storage (NPS) for Cloud. With NPS, you have the ability to go from a midrange enterprise storage system to ultra–high speed All Flash FAS storage systems, all while still having the flexibility of AWS cloud compute. NPS for Cloud also opens the door to moving larger scale applications to the cloud such as analytics and scientific computing workloads that require the highest IOPS performance, capacity, and scale.
Disaster Recovery:
Ensure Business Continuity in your IT Environment whether in a Data Center or in the Cloud
The usage-based model of cloud computing is well suited for DR, and it offers a viable alternative to on-premises solutions. Moving DR operations to the cloud reduces the required data center space and storage infrastructure, resulting in cost savings and flexibility.
Disaster recovery on the cloud with ONTAP Cloud
With ONTAP Cloud, you can easily deploy a DR environment in the cloud and target from your on-premises NetApp Data ONTAP environments.
When building your disaster recovery site in AWS, ONTAP Cloud brings you a common data platform with that of your data center enterprise environment.

DevOps:
Automate Your Development and Test Environment with Advanced Data Management Capabilities, Increased Performance and Elasticity.
When building out a development or test environment, flexibility of resource utilization is at the core of why the cloud has fast became the top choice.
With NetApp ONTAP Cloud, you can take advantage of the flexibility of AWS compute and storage resources while also gaining enterprise-class features that both minimize the resources used and enhance your ability to scale.
DevOps Efficiency on the Cloud
