This white paper examines the importance of application and system availability and how a growing number of organizations are currently addressing high-availability needs with respect to their storage environments. It then focuses on deployments of NetApp storage systems and how these deployments have met or exceeded customers' expectations with greater than 99.999% (5-9s) availability based on NetApp's rigorous process, enabled by technologies such as array-based clustering and nondisruptive operations.http://www.netapp.com/us/media/ar-idc-enterprise-storage.pdfhttp://www.netapp.com/us/media/ar-idc-enterprise-storage.pdfJune 12, 2013 This paper looks at the adoption and benefits of clustered storage among firms of different sizes and geographic locations and identifies how NetApp clustered storage offerings meet firms' key requirements for clustered storage solutions.http://www.netapp.com/us/media/idc-the-benefits-of-clustered-storage.pdfhttp://www.netapp.com/us/media/idc-the-benefits-of-clustered-storage.pdfJune 11, 2013 This white paper examines the importance of application and system availability and how a growing number of organizations are currently addressing high-availability needs with respect to their storage environments. It explores the importance of application availability and the underlying foundation that reliable disk storage systems provide a much broader set of business requirements and applications. The paper then focuses on deployments of NetApp storage systems and how these deployments have met or exceeded customers' expectations with greater than 99.999% (5-9s) availability based on NetApp's rigorous process, enabled by technologies such as array-based clustering and nondisruptive operations.http://www.netapp.com/us/media/idc-es-foundation.pdfhttp://www.netapp.com/us/media/idc-es-foundation.pdfApril 01, 2013 DCR, NetApp Distributed Content Repository, StorageGRID, E-Serieshttp://www.netapp.com/us/media/ar-forrester-total-economic-impact.pdfhttp://www.netapp.com/us/media/ar-forrester-total-economic-impact.pdfMarch 19, 2013 FAS6200, FAS6240, Clustered Storage, SAN Storage, Enterprise, IO Performance, OLTPhttp://www.netapp.com/us/media/ar-netapp-fas6240-clustered-san.pdfhttp://www.netapp.com/us/media/ar-netapp-fas6240-clustered-san.pdfFebruary 15, 2013 The primary objective of efficiency at scale is to create a dynamic, non-disruptive environment that supports data growth in such a way that system capabilities remain as balanced as possible while, in parallel, meeting constantly changing and more demanding business requirements. A huge shift in IT is underway from an approach of dedicated architectures to more flexible, efficient, and shared architectures. NetApp has been working on the challenges of scale—and of providing efficiency at scale—for years, and it has developed some strong and commendable abilities to deal with “big.” This paper examines the issues, and NetApp’s answers.http://www.netapp.com/us/media/esg-wp-efficiency.pdfhttp://www.netapp.com/us/media/esg-wp-efficiency.pdfFebruary 08, 2013 This ESG Lab Validation report documents the results of hands-on testing of NetApp clustered Data ONTAP in Oracle database environments, with a focus on ease of management, non-disruptive operations, and efficient scalinghttp://www.netapp.com/us/media/ar-esg-netapp-clustered-data-ontap-oracle-databases.pdfhttp://www.netapp.com/us/media/ar-esg-netapp-clustered-data-ontap-oracle-databases.pdfFebruary 04, 2013 This study highlights the cost and benefits of deploying NetApp cloud infrastructure solutions using clustered Data ONTAP across the enterprise of a composite Organization.http://www.netapp.com/us/media/ar-cloud-infrastructure-clustered-data-ontap.pdfhttp://www.netapp.com/us/media/ar-cloud-infrastructure-clustered-data-ontap.pdfJanuary 31, 2013 http://www.netapp.com/us/media/midrange-unified-storage.pdfhttp://www.netapp.com/us/media/midrange-unified-storage.pdfJanuary 29, 2013 The study examines the estimated ROI of deploying the FlexPod platform across the enterprise of a composite Organization.http://www.netapp.com/us/media/ar-forrester-flexpod-tei-case-study.pdfhttp://www.netapp.com/us/media/ar-forrester-flexpod-tei-case-study.pdfJanuary 16, 2013 Solid-state Storage: The Case for, Types of, and Purchasing Considerationshttp://www.netapp.com/us/media/ar-solid-state-storage.pdfhttp://www.netapp.com/us/media/ar-solid-state-storage.pdfJanuary 15, 2013 http://www.netapp.com/us/media/esg-lab-validation-netapp-with-oracle.pdfhttp://www.netapp.com/us/media/esg-lab-validation-netapp-with-oracle.pdfJanuary 01, 2013 Three page solution brief from Mark Bowker reviews how NetApp Private Storage for Amazon Web Services combines the performance, security, and compliance of dedicated storage with the economics and agility of public cloud.http://www.netapp.com/us/media/ar-esg-brief-netapp-private-storage.pdfhttp://www.netapp.com/us/media/ar-esg-brief-netapp-private-storage.pdfDecember 17, 2012 The past several years have been a breakout moment in government for cloud and virtualization technologies, and they are poised to continue expanding. Driven by cost-savings, gained efficiencies, and mission specific benefits, agencies are adopting cloud computing and virtualization at a growing rate. International Data Corporation projects that in the next decade, 80 percent of growth in the IT industry will be driven by cloud services. Of the government’s $80 billion in IT spending, approximately $20 billion could be moved to the cloud. As cloud and virtualization technologies grow, they are also maturing. In doing so, cloud computing technologies are changing and shifting to provide services never before conceived to the federal government.http://www.netapp.com/us/media/applications-of-the-next-big-technology-trend.pdfhttp://www.netapp.com/us/media/applications-of-the-next-big-technology-trend.pdfDecember 03, 2012 The U.S. government is testing unmanned aerial vehicles for surveillance of U.S. airspace, as are state and local governments.
