More than 5,000 attendees participated in NetApp Insight 2016 in Las Vegas to hear whats new with both NetApp and SolidFire. As you may know both NetApp and SolidFire are both valued VMware partners and have their own certified VVol implementations. Last week I was fortunate enough to be invited to speak to our joint customers about the value of Virtual Volumes on NetApp’s ONTAP and SolidFire’s Element OS. As always, the sessions were packed with people wanting to move to VVols because as we all know by now, LUNs Suck.
In addition to the 13 announcements made last week I was really interested in hearing from both NetApp and SolidFire how they thought this acquisition was going, so I brought my handy dandy microphone and captured tons of “Insight” for your listening pleasure. Enjoy.
