NetApp Signs Strategic Collaboration Agreement with AWS to Enhance Cloud-Based Data Services
Signed SCA with AWS delivers performance and scalability for modern data workloads like Generative AI
NetApp and AWS have worked together for over a decade to jointly accelerate innovation for thousands of customers worldwide. In that time, NetApp has achieved more than a dozen AWS competencies, including the Manufacturing and
“With NetApp cloud solutions on AWS, our customers maintain full control over their data across their entire hybrid cloud environment while benefiting from industry-leading scalability, data availability, security, and performance of AWS,” said
The expansion of the collaboration between NetApp and AWS will benefit customers by:
- Accelerating Generative AI Efforts: This SCA will accelerate generative AI efforts, helping customers continuously fuel business growth and innovation by delivering data-rich experiences through workload migration and new application deployments on AWS. NetApp recently released BlueXP workload factory to help customers connect ONTAP with foundation models (FMs) through Amazon Bedrock and extend their on-premises data estate for building generative AI applications. AWS and NetApp also published reference architecture guidance for customers to integrate proprietary enterprise data on FSx for ONTAP into generative AI pipelines using retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) and APIs for Amazon Bedrock, enabling secure, high-performance use with foundation models. The collaboration between AWS and NetApp simplifies, accelerates, and enables the ability to generate unique, high-quality, and ultra-relevant data insights. Instaclustr by NetApp manages open source vector databases, a crucial component in the delivery of fast and accurate results in RAG architectures. The close collaboration between AWS and NetApp on these advanced workloads makes it simpler and faster for customers to unlock value from their data using RAG.

Simplifying Transactions: This SCA will enable increased
AWS Marketplace purchases, especially for NetApp CloudOps solutions, to streamline processes for customers. It will also enable customers to more easily implement technical proof of concepts to evaluate how NetApp solutions on AWS can support their operations. -
Delivering CloudOps Value: This SCA better positions NetApp as a trusted provider of CloudOps solutions for AWS environments. Investments from AWS enable NetApp to better position and deliver cost and performance optimization solutions through the
AWS Marketplace . NetApp’s close relationship with AWS shows customers they can trust that NetApp solutions will integrate seamlessly into their cloud operations and help them achieve their goals for the performance, protection, scalability, and availability of their workloads and data.
