NetApp, VMware Deliver Windows Consolidation For SMBs

NetApp and VMware are enabling midsize enterprises to deliver a new solution for Windows consolidation that improves productivity and scalability for midsize enterprises while significantly reducing IT costs.

Customers can use the NetApp FAS family and VMware vSphere to deliver application-aware data protection and disaster recovery technologies that were previously limited to a handful of midsize customers, helping them achieve enterprise-class availability for their Windows environments.
Customers can also use NetApp Virtual Storage Console and VMware vCenter Server to deliver integrated management for enhanced visibility, helping them respond faster to unplanned downtime and boost productivity.

“Like large organisations, midsize enterprises are looking for ways to improve productivity and lower IT costs while delivering IT as a service that delivers higher availability through automation and simplified management. As part of our strategic partnership, VMware and NetApp are committed to bringing enterprise-class functionality to the midmarket, helping these customers maintain critical service levels while enabling future growth to meet changing business demands,” said Gary Green, Vice President, Global Strategic Alliances, VMware.
