HIMSS 2018: Must-See Products - NetApp HCI
For its new HCI solution, NetApp separated compute and storage components to allow distinct scalability in an hyperconverged infrastructure. HealthTech gets a brief tour of this enterprise-scale technology.
Participants
Cindy Goodell, Sr. Product Marketing Manager, NetApp
Gabriel Chapman, Sr. Manager, NetApp HCI, NetApp
Video Highlights
- The NetApp HCI comes in a 2U form factor and can scale to 64 compute nodes and 40 storage nodes.
- As an organization adds storage or compute, the provisioning capability can distinguish whether new nodes are compute or storage, and then automatically provision them accordingly.
- For healthcare environments, the on-premises tool can house sensitive data, such as personal health information, while providing for the ability to burst to the cloud for other less-sensitive processing and storage needs.
