“We are proud to be named the AWS ISV Design Partner of the Year in the US," said Anthony Lye, Executive Vice President and General Manager of Public Cloud Services at NetApp. "For nearly a decade, NetApp and AWS engineers have worked together to create industry-leading cloud services, so it's incredibly exciting to see our joint innovation be recognized onstage at this year’s re:Invent. Together, NetApp and AWS are delivering the best of cloud to our customers and partners to deliver immediate business value, whether in the form of cost efficiency, compliance, data protection, or performance."
NetApp also announced important milestones in the growth of its Spot by NetApp product portfolio for CloudOps, including:
