NetApp IT Data Center Strategies to Enable Digital TransformationNetApp
During an Insight Las Vegas 2017 breakout presentation, NetApp IT Customer-1 Director, Stan Cox, and Senior Storage Architect, Eduardo Rivera explained how NetApp IT enables digital transformation with data center strategies that incorporates ONTAP AFF systems in the data center to save power, cooling & space and NetApp Private Storage and ONTAP Cloud to leverage the public cloud while retaining control of their data. Using OnCommand Insight for data center management—and its integration with their configuration management database—the NetApp IT team knows what’s in their data centers, in terms of both functionality, usage, and inter-connections. NetApp IT believes knowing what’s in your data centers is fundamental to maintaining total cost of ownership, adapting to new technologies, leveraging the cloud while owning your data, and enabling digital transformation.
Many have heard us at NetApp talking recently about how the world is changing fundamentally and quickly: digital transformation is – or should be – the focus of any enterprise’s IT strategy. And squarely at the center of that focus is data. As data continues to become even more distributed, dynamic and diverse, everything from IT infrastructures to application architectures to provisioning strategies will have to change in response to new realities in the hybrid cloud world. It’s in that context that we conceived our top five CTO predictions for 2018.

With the widespread adoption of hybrid multicloud as the de-facto architecture for the enterprise, organizations everywhere are modernizing to deliver tangible business value around data-intensive applications and workloads such as AI-driven IoT and Hyperledgers. Shifting from on-premises to public cloud services, private clouds, and moving from disk to flash – sometimes concurrently – opens the door to enormous potential, but also the unintended consequence of IT complexity.

Redefining HCI: How to Go from Hyper Converged to Hybrid Cloud InfrastructureNetApp
The hyper converged infrastructure (HCI) market is entering a new phase of maturity. A modern HCI solution requires a private cloud platform that integrates with public clouds to create a consistent hybrid multi-cloud experience.
During this webinar, NetApp and an IDC guest speaker covered what led to the next generation of hyper converged infrastructure and which five capabilities are required to go from hyper converged to hybrid cloud infrastructure.
As we enter 2019, what stands out is how trends in business and technology are connected by common themes. For example, AI is at the heart of trends in development, data management, and delivery of applications and services at the edge, core, and cloud. Also essential are containerization as a critical enabling technology and the increasing intelligence of IoT devices at the edge. Navigating the tempests of transformation are developers, whose requirements are driving the rapid creation of new paradigms and technologies that they must then master in pursuit of long-term competitive advantage. Here are some of our perspectives and predictions for 2019.
