Cloud Compliance
Cloud Compliance is a file classification tool for industry compliance, privacy regulations across clouds. License is free, you are paying only for running VM in your cloud provider.
- File classification & privacy risk tool for Cloud Volumes
- License is free, you pay to your Cloud Provider for running additional VM
- PCI, HIPAA, GDPR, CCPA, etc
- Credit Cards, IBAN, Emails, SSN, TIM, EIN, etc
Cloud Insights
It is a monitoring tool for cloud & on-prem infrastructure, containers & different vendors, and is free with basic edition to all NetApp customers. Cloud insights available as SaaS service, no installation & configuration needed. So here is what’s new:
- REST APIs
- Kubernetes Technology
- Cloud Secure now is part of Cloud Insights
- Active IQ integration
Cloud Secure
Thanks to self-learning AI identifies baseline file access and actively blocks & notifies unusual activities with your files against insider threats and external breaches. Cloud Secure monitor, secure, optimize across hybrid multi-cloud
- It is a feature of Cloud Insights Premium edition
- Monitor file activities at CVO & on-prem ONTAP for unusual activities
NetApp Kubernetes Services (NKS)
At start NKS was available in public clouds, then NetApp added NKS to on-prem NetApp HCI. And on VMworld 2019 in Las Vegas, before Insight 2019 NetApp announced NKS on VMware (no NetApp HCI platform needed).
- Now supported on Azure NetApp Files
- NKS with FlexPod
- NKS visibility in Cloud Insights
- NetApp HCI + NKS: DevOps End-to-End Pipeline with Trident

HCI
New in NetApp HCI:
- Compute node H615C with Intel Cascade Lake CPU
- NVIDIA Tesla graphic cards
- SSD with FIPS 140-2 compliance & external key management
- Cloud Volumes ONTAP on HCI
- NetApp HCI for VDI with VMware Horizon 7
- Google Anthos GKE on NetApp HCI with NKS & Trident (read why it is a big deal)
- NetApp HCI + NKS: DevOps End-to-End Pipeline with Trident
- VMware Private Cloud for NetApp HCI
- Now you can manage your Kubernetes clusters & containers in the cloud & on-prem with a single pane of glass NKS service, now these are just yet another “zone” for you:
- NetApp HCI
- On VMware
- Azure, AWS, Google Cloud
- Short video about NetApp HCI
Two performance tests for HCI:
- IOmark-VM-HC: 5 storage & 18 compute nodes using data stores & VVols
- IOmark-VDI-HC: 5 storage nodes & 12 compute nodes with only data stores
Total 1,440 VMs with 3,200 VDI desktops.
Notice how asymmetrical number of storage nodes compared to compute nodes are, and in “Real” HCI architectures with local disk drives you have to have more equipment, while with NetApp HCI you can choose how much storage and how much compute resources you need and scale them separately. Dedup & compression were enabled in the tests.
