Personnel: Phoebe Goh, Stephen Foskett

Speakers from NetApp and Google Cloud join a handpicked group of industry thought leaders. These thought leaders know a thing or two about multicloud data management and storage. They will have a lively discussion about key themes from Cloud Field Day.

During the roundtable, a significant portion of the discussion focused on the challenges and strategies surrounding multicloud data management and security. One of the primary concerns raised was addressing ransomware attacks in a multicloud environment. The participants discussed the capabilities of Cloud Data Sense, a NetApp offering designed to detect ransomware and assist in data recovery across different cloud platforms. They explored the need for a multilayer approach to data security, emphasizing the importance of detecting anomalous behavior and implementing autonomous actions like snapshots to safeguard data integrity. The conversation highlighted the complexities of managing data recovery in multicloud setups, particularly regarding the bandwidth and cost implications involved in transferring large datasets.

The participants also considered the challenges of cloud governance and standardization, emphasizing the importance of well-structured cloud architecture and data management policies. Key points included ensuring data sovereignty and implementing governance mechanisms such as data residency and access control. The discussion acknowledged the complexity of maintaining compliance while giving developers the freedom to innovate. There was a consensus on the necessity of balancing robust security measures with the flexibility required by developers to deploy applications across different platforms. The role of cloud providers in offering guidance through white papers and best practices was seen as crucial in helping organizations navigate these challenges.

Lastly, the roundtable explored the drivers behind the adoption of multicloud environments, noting that many organizations are transitioning deliberately rather than by accident. Strategic goals such as risk management, utilizing the best tools for specific tasks, and meeting evolving business needs were highlighted as reasons for this transition. The panelists discussed the complexities involved in architecting multicloud solutions and the challenges of standardizing and automating processes to ensure efficient resource usage and security compliance. Overall, the conversation underscored the dynamic nature of the cloud landscape and the ongoing need for organizations to adapt and innovate their cloud strategies.

How Can NetApp Cloud File Services Improve the Day-to-Day Operations Of Your Cloud

Event: Take Charge of your Multicloud Environment with NetApp

Appearance: How Can NetApp Cloud File Services Improve Day-to-Day Cloud Operations?

Company: NetApp

Video Links:

Personnel: Charles Foley, Greg Marino, Phoebe Goh, Vishnu Cheruvally

Chuck Foley and a team of NetApp experts delivered an insightful presentation on optimizing multicloud environments with NetApp’s cloud technologies. The discussion began by addressing the rapid shift in many enterprises to adopt hybrid multicloud infrastructures, highlighting how workloads are now distributed across various cloud platforms like AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud to capitalize on each platform’s unique strengths. NetApp has recognized this trend and invested heavily in providing seamless integration and management solutions that cater to such complex environments. These efforts are designed to alleviate the common challenges faced by IT organizations, including simplifying operations, reducing costs, and improving data security and compliance.

The presentation emphasized NetApp’s commitment to simplifying cloud operations through advanced storage solutions, data protection, and governance tools available across major public cloud platforms. With partners among leading cloud service providers, NetApp offers native service integrations like Azure NetApp files, Google Cloud volume services, and Amazon FSX for NetApp ONTAP, allowing enterprises to leverage robust, enterprise-grade storage solutions. NetApp has not only brought ONTAP to the cloud but has also layered additional services like backup and data tiering to optimize usage and costs. The interface for these services, Cloud Manager, provides a consolidated view of the infrastructure, supporting streamlined management and policy enforcement across different clouds.

Further discussions during the presentation dwelled on intelligent data management practices, underlined by AI and ML technologies, which foster operational efficiency and cost-effectiveness in hybrid multicloud settings. NetApp showcased its ability to provide flexible licensing models and run efficient cloud backup strategies that adapt to an organization’s specific compliance and data residency needs. With tools like Cloud Datasense, organizations can gain better insights into data classification and compliance, ultimately contributing to a more secure, governed, and financially optimized cloud environment. The session concluded with an optimistic outlook on the future of cloud computing, where intelligent automation and flexible consumption models will become integral to cloud strategy.

How Do You Make Multicloud Work For You with NetApp?

Personnel: Jeff Baxter, Phoebe Goh

In an engaging Q&A session with Jeff Baxter, the Sr. Director of Product Marketing, and Phoebe Goh, the Principal Architect and Cloud Evangelist at NetApp, the complexities of navigating a multicloud environment and strategies for effectively harnessing its potential were explored. The conversation began with an analogy likening the multitude of available cloud services to the numerous streaming services we use today. Just as we manage multiple streaming subscriptions, businesses leverage multiple cloud providers to utilize their unique capabilities, which introduces a layer of complexity when it comes to cost management, security, and data sovereignty. The key, as discussed, is moving away from an ad-hoc approach to a purposeful strategy in managing multicloud environments to fully leverage the benefits while minimizing inefficiencies and unexpected costs.

Jeff Baxter, with his 15 years of experience at NetApp transitioning through various roles from systems engineer to product management and now marketing, provided insights into how NetApp is positioned to support enterprises in this multicloud journey. According to Baxter, a hybrid multicloud setup often still ties back to some on-premises data center interaction, reflecting the reality that most large-scale enterprises view cloud as an extension rather than a replacement. As cloud adoption is projected to grow, with a significant increase in enterprises engaging with three or more clouds, NetApp continues to focus on enabling businesses to seamlessly manage and operate across these varied environments. The focus on purposeful multicloud usage implies that enterprises should intentionally select cloud services to drive business outcomes rather than letting happenstance dictate their cloud strategy.

The session also delved into the broader concepts of cloud computing, including definitions that extend beyond infrastructure as a service to encompass software as a service, and the important interplays between private and public clouds. The importance of platform engineering and managing data across a spectrum of environments, including edge computing and hybrid models, was highlighted. Goh and Baxter noted that understanding and integrating data workflows across these varied domains are crucial and that there’s an evolution towards platform-agnostic, service-oriented infrastructures. Through this lens, NetApp sees its role as providing visibility and support for data governance, compliance, and privacy, thus enabling organizations to take charge of their multicloud strategy with confidence and foresight.
