Agencies understand the need for data-rich systems that are easily and securely accessible, enabling quick decision-making, speeding up processes, and improving citizen experience. To achieve this transformation, a hybrid multicloud strategy, where the cloud is fully integrated into the agency’s infrastructure and operations, is essential.
NetApp’s unique capabilities enable them to enhance their customer’s data infrastructure performance by combining unified data storage, integrated data services, and CloudOps solutions. Organizations can leverage NetApp’s unified data storage to consolidate any type of data, workload, or application across various environments.
