NetApp on NetApp
The NetApp on NetApp team dives into NetApp’s internal IT operations to shine a light on how we use NetApp products. We work closely with NetApp IT to discover what products we’re using, why we’re using them, and how they help deliver a world-class hybrid cloud environment.
From security to storage, we interview our experts and bring their insights to you to provide an authentic voice on NetApp.
“We, as a NetApp customer, share our experiences. Our charter: to share those genuine experiences solving real world business problems and really focusing on the business outcomes.”
