Knowing your current state before you plan your future state is key to success in the cloud. By employing a modular methodology, our dedicated team of experienced IT professionals defines your organization’s current consumption metrics by assessing application demands and storage and compute service levels. The workshop uses your organization’s actual data, not hypothetical metrics, to give you a current-state view of your infrastructure. This information is key to developing a future-state strategy and design for a hybrid cloud model for your business. By establishing a clear business case for a hybrid cloud approach that is aligned to your strategic business objectives, NetApp consultants help you understand where you can gain efficiencies and save costs by optimizing your infrastructure to meet future business needs.
