Jagjit Singh Dhatterwal, Kuldeep Singh Kaswan, Vivek Jaglan · 2023
Organizational information technology (IT) departments now often use hybrid or multicloud deployment strategies. It is now more difficult than ever to handle data in such a heterogeneous setting. NetApp’s ideal data management system is a “data fabric” that allows for the frictionless integration of various cloud deployment models (including private, public, and hybrid ones). To provide uniformity and authority over data mobility, security, visibility, protection, and access, a data fabric centralizes data management across disparate resources. We shall define the term “data fabric,” outline its design, and provide some examples in this chapter of its use, outline its deployment options, and show you the future of NetApp’s data fabric.
