AWS Cloud services are known to scale automatically and easily, though managing the data sets created by the applications using these services don't. In fact, distributed and disparate types of production, test, development and customer data in volume regularly create operational friction and escalate costs at scale. Learn how Australia's largest software company overcame these challenges, and leveraged an advanced cloud data management platform to maximise control over data placement, performance and privacy, as well as create a better experience for their SaaS customers. Speakers: Corey Adolphus, Hybrid Cloud Architect, NetApp & Darryn Schafferius, Systems Engineer, NetApp

2. Are you sure you’re at the right conference?
…………. Isn’t this about clouds?!?!

3. Customers have been telling us they have to
continue to “Transform and Innovate” to
remain competitive. We have had to do the
same.
• Deliver our services from the public cloud
• Have decommissioned all our data
centres
• Do not want to own high tech assets
“But we’re all in on Cloud! How is NetApp
supposed to help us when we….”

4. We also hear… “We are Enterprise and 24/7. The
business is asking for more.”
• Efficiency
• Availability
• Performance
• Scalability
• Recoverability
• Automation
• Alerting & Logging
How do we ensure:

5. And then…. “We don’t want to be slowed down
by legacy process and controls. We don’t want
IT to get in our way”
So let’s focus on:
• Efficiency
• Automation
• Availability and Performance

7. Efficiency
Is your Cloud strategy about reducing costs? Or becoming
more profitable?
They are not the same thing! But we can help with both.

8. Automation
What makes “The Cloud” more than just someone else’s
computer? Automation, Integration, Analytics, Reporting?
Really it’s all of the above.

9. Availability and Performance
What happens if I need more than what the Cloud can give
me today? What happens if my business requirements take
me outside of the current Cloud capability?

11. Take Aways
ü Keep innovating “Towards the Cloud”, “In the
Cloud” and “Beyond the Cloud”
ü Innovation is not a straight line!
ü It’s not “all or nothing” – never has been, and never
will be
ü New challenges = new thinking + new partnerships
ü Challenge your partners to show you how they can
help you achieve your Cloud goals. No
compromise!
So what have you told me today? And why should I care?
