CHALLENGE

DevOps bottleneck

Containerized workloads in OpenShift clusters are more important in enterprise IT deployments than ever. But without the right tools, provisioning persistent storage for these clusters can take days or even weeks, creating a DevOps bottleneck.

SOLUTION

Enterprise-grade data management

Cloud Volumes ONTAP and the NetApp Trident storage provisioner simplify the management of persistent data for OpenShift clusters by allowing cloud architects and DevOps to provision secure, enterprise-grade persistent storage volumes automatically as soon as claims are made. This combines with Cloud Volumes ONTAP’s single-pane-of-glass governance, seamless data protection, hybrid and mulitcloud functionality, and more to make it indispensable to enterprise OpenShift environments.

NetApp has a great data mobility story with data fabric, and we are just scratching the surface of what we can do. As we continue maturing our automation story, NetApp will help us take advantage of hybrid cloud efficiencies while ensuring a seamless experience for our developers.
