By default, backups in Google Cloud NetApp Volumes (GCNV) are encrypted using Google-managed encryption keys, offering robust protection without additional configuration. However, for organizations with strict security standards, compliance regulations, or custom key-custody requirements, controlling your encryption keys…
ONTAP is NetApp’s storage operating system, and it is known for an industry-leading feature set. Storage efficiency is one of those features. Deduplication, compression, and compaction reduce the physical capacity required to store your logical data. Compaction fills physical blocks that would otherwise stay only partly…
In Part 1 of this series, we covered the fundamentals of Integrated Backups for Google Cloud NetApp Volumes (GCNV), focusing on backup vault creation, automated scheduling, and basic day-to-day operations.

The questions now are how to run AI in production, how to keep it secure, and how to size it for where you are today without boxing yourself in tomorrow. FlexPod AI is built to answer those questions. This update covers three…
When deploying applications in the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Cloud that require low-latency storage and operating-system-level disk access, many organizations defer to the default block storage option on AWS. Another available option, Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP (FSx for ONTAP), is often associated with just file storage,…

An application owner pings Anna on Teams: "We need 500 GB for a new service, today, if possible." She knows the drill. She opens NetApp® ONTAP® System Manager on the target cluster to check aggregates, Active IQ Unified Manager to see whether anything is already alerting on that system, and NetApp Digital Advisor® to…
Hybrid multicloud operations have reached an inflection point. For years, infrastructure teams have worked across disconnected tools, fragmented management planes, and environment-specific workflows to keep storage estates running. That model worked when estates were smaller, more centralized, and easier to reason about…
