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.

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.
