2019: NetApp Keystone representation

On October 30, 2019 the Netapp company announced that it is ready to offer the customers the Netapp Keystone program which provides a number of flexible solutions both for acquisition, and for independent creation of cloud infrastructure.

In modern conditions cloud computing plays a key role in client experience. We created the strategy of Data Fabric to simplify and upgrade DPC of our partners and also to give them the chance to succeed during an era of a hybrid cloud. Solutions which we implement are further development of this philosophy — what Data Fabric made in respect of simplification and unification of infrastructure of data, our flexible models of use do at the level of business, speaks the CEO of Netapp George Kurian

The purpose of Netapp — to simplify for customers management to data in all aspects: from acquisition and consumption of products and services before their use in the environments and the choice of service provider. Being the company in the field of the equipment and the software for data storage and also provider of cloud services, with business which grows almost for 200% from year to year, NetApp offers a full range of the opportunities necessary for customers for creation of the Data Fabric and management of them for the purpose of elimination of financial, operational and technical obstacles in a way of implementation of hybrid multicloud environments.

Characteristics of Keystone:

• Flexibility for a combination and coordination of options of purchases and payment methods of subscriptions
• An opportunity to use any Netapp service in any environment — in DPC, in a cloud, in their combination
• Freedom of choice of management — through NetApp, the partner or independently
• The reduced model of ownership which allows to buy systems, to use them and to expand infrastructure, since products of Netapp: A400, FAS8300 and FAS8700

Keystone helps to adapt to realities of a hybrid multicloud in which IT departments should have more wide choice, flexibility and freedom to use those services of data which are necessary for them, and to pay these services as it is convenient to them.

In addition to Keystone, NetApp also simplified for customers processes of purchase and operation thanks to the optimized sales process and also the fixed prices on these services. All these offers will be included in a hybrid flash DWH and DWH of all-flash — NetApp AFF A400, FAS8300 and FAS8700.
