Centralize your ability to deploy, automate, protect, and monitor all your storage with NetApp® OnCommand™ Unified Manager software: unified management for your NetApp storage systems.
Most enterprise storage products have a management interface that controls only one silo of technology or a single capability or manages physical resources separately from virtual. But since IT organizations are pressed to manage more data and resources with the same staff, they need to improve efficiency, in terms of both services and equipment.
Only NetApp OnCommand Unified Manager delivers a unified experience to manage physical and virtual storage environments using integrated workflows and policy-driven automation. From a single interface, Unified Manager enables the consolidation and simplification of shared IT storage management, delivering greater flexibility and efficiency than do competing approaches.
Unified Manager controls your shared IT infrastructure as one or more pools of storage using policy-based automation for provisioning and data protection, resulting in up to 50% savings in storage costs. A centralized dashboard enables storage transparency while using intuitive point-and-click drill-downs. It enables performance management for NetApp storage with monitoring, alarms, and granular threshold settings. OnCommand integrates with third-party management suites and hypervisors, letting you manage from your platform of choice.
