You can also build a foundation of a Data Fabric across flash, disk,

and cloud. Move your data to where it’s needed and place it on the

storage environment that delivers the best combination of flash

performance, storage capacity, and cost efficiency. Organizations

are increasingly turning to the cloud to be more responsive to user

needs. If your plans include the cloud, now or in the future, the

FAS2700 running ONTAP is a great choice.

NetApp offers a number of options for extending your FAS2700

to the hybrid cloud with Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft

Azure, Google Cloud Platform (GCP), and other leading cloud

providers. Options include:

• Easily burst capacity to public clouds without typical capex

constraints with NetApp Cloud Volumes Service, the first

enterprise-class cloud-native file service for AWS and GCP, or

Azure NetApp Files for Microsoft Azure. Ideal for data-intensive

workloads such as analytics and DevOps, these cloud data services

combine elastic, on-demand storage as a service from NetApp

with ONTAP data management in a fully-managed offering.

• For those seeking advanced data services for cloud block

or object storage services such as AWS EBS or S3, or Azure

storage, Cloud Volumes ONTAP provides data management

between your on-premises environment and the public

cloud with a single, common view. Running in AWS or Azure

as an on-demand instance, Cloud Volumes ONTAP provides

the storage efficiency, availability, and scalability of ONTAP

software to allow easy movement of data between your

on-premises FAS2700 and AWS or Azure storage environment

with NetApp SnapMirror® data replication software.

• For organizations that need an enterprise-class hybrid cloud

with data governance and security, the FAS2700 can be used

in a NetApp Private Storage (NPS) for Cloud solution. With

NPS for Cloud, you can directly connect to multiple clouds

by using a private, high-bandwidth, low-latency connection.

Connect to industry-leading clouds such as AWS, GCP,

Microsoft Azure, or IBM Cloud and switch between them at

any time, all while maintaining complete control of your data

on your dedicated, private FAS2700.

With best-in-class data management and control for the hybrid

cloud, NetApp cloud solutions enable seamless movement of data

into and out of the cloud.
