The Challenge »Where we stand«
No one can predict the future. Yet if there's one thing that is abundantly clear, it is that data volumes are increasing all the time and conventional structures are not geared to handling this demand. Companies need to take action to stay competitive. After all, leading-edge digitalization is undoubtedly a response to the major challenges of our time.
The IT infrastructures of most companies have grown over the years. Until now, their tried-and-tested problem-solving strategy has been to add more and more components to their IT systems. But this approach no longer works. Because the coexistence of different systems, plus data and application silos, is leading to heterogeneous inflexibility and paralyzing dynamic IT environments.
This is causing IT decision-makers and designers to focus increasingly on the topic of storage. That is logical, because rising demand for a robust data management strategy using fast and reliable storage media means that companies are crying out for a state-of-the-art storage infrastructure that meets the needs of the data age and can be incorporated seamlessly into the IT architecture.
THE SOLUTION »Where we want to go«
IT systems must not be allowed to become a source of constant problems. Instead, they should make companies more flexible and more efficient and allow them to introduce cutting-edge automation and dynamic scaling of workloads. Yet that requires storage and IT excellence alike. To meet this need, Fujitsu and NetApp pooled their expertise and formed an alliance that has stood for more than 20 years now as a shining example of reliability, competence and innovation.
Together, we offer your company made-to-measure, integrated solutions that meet the requirements of your digital transformation. Solutions in the shape of future-proof IT infrastructures, combined with smart data management. This unique combination means that you can forget any concerns about issues such as disaster recovery, backups and data security, and moreover fulfills all requirements regarding virtualization and the cloud, big data and analytics, as well as SAP and Microsoft environments.

7 Reasons why NETAPP is best for Flash
Best performance.
Your end-users expect consistent, high performance for business-critical applications. Not only do NetApp all-flash arrays deliver consistent low latency under the most stressful workloads, but performance does not suffer when storage efficiency technologies are turned on. Other vendors can’t make the same claims; we guarantee it!
More efficient.
To control costs you need to purchase the least amount of storage capacity possible. NetApp delivers market-leading data reduction with features like deduplication, compression, and compaction. Turn on snapshots and the storage savings increase 10X. Not only do we promise better effective capacity, we offer the most effective guarantee.
No fluff. No fine print.
Total security.
Your end-users need non-stop access to business- critical data. Unplanned downtime and other disruptions should not impact running your business. NetApp all-flash arrays provide application- consistent data protection, synchronous replication, built-in encryption, WORM protection, multi-factor authentication, FIPS 140-2 Level 2 certification, crypto shredding and more to protect your data and help you meet governance and compliance requirements.
Completely future-proof.
NetApp has your back. Sure, we can offer you a free controller upgrade. Anyone can. But we don’t want to lock you into a future that’s strictly on-premises. There’s a good chance your IT strategy will take you to hybrid or public cloud within the next 3 years. Our NextCredit program gives you the agility to connect to the cloud and integrate your data, both on-prem and in the cloud – with no upfront costs.
Better application integration.
Enterprise applications often demand more capacity in an unplanned way. Plug-ins for Oracle, Microsoft SQL, SAP, My SQL, MongoDB, IBM, DB2, and VMWare let you empower your application owner to provision storage as they need it – easily and without being storage experts.
Most cloud-ready.
NetApp provides the fundamental building blocks for hybrid cloud to ensure you have the right data in the right place for the right cost. Whether it’s tiering cold data to the cloud, using cloud for backup, or unifying management across flash and cloud, NetApp all-flash storage connects to more clouds in more ways than anyone else.
Innovation leader.
Technology advancements allow you to stay relevant and drive ahead of the competition. In 2018 alone, NetApp led the market shipping NVMe over Fabrics (NVMe-oF), the industry’s first end-to-end NVMe system, support for 32 GB fibre-channel and 100 Gb Ethernet, data management software for server-side persistent memory, and cloud data services. Our innovation focus allows us to deliver on the Data Fabric strategy, giving you the freedom of choice, future-proof environments, simplicity, and protection required for your successful digital transformation.
As fast as lightning, yet still predictable
Making predictions is nothing special for the German Meteorological Service, or DWD. On the contrary, it's all about forecasting the weather. Thanks to NetApp All-Flash technology, DWD managed to cut data latency from 15 seconds to less than 1 millisecond! For pilots and search and rescue services, this boost in speed can be a matter of life and death.
NetApp and Fujitsu do more than simply speeding up data response times though. We also ensure that the data gets to customers reliably and that real-time transmission opens up new functions and opportunities.
