NetApp is an intelligent data infrastructure company that helps organizations store, manage, protect, and activate data across on-premises, edge, and hybrid multicloud environments. Its portfolio is anchored by ONTAP, a unified data storage operating system that spans block, file, and object workloads and supports multiple deployment models, from all-flash and hybrid-flash systems to software-defined and cloud-based services.
NetApp combines enterprise storage platforms, object storage, cloud storage software, and storage-as-a-service with integrated data protection, cyber resilience, automation, and data mobility. Its offerings are built for organizations that need consistent data services across physical and cloud environments for mission-critical applications, virtualization, analytics, backup and archive, and emerging AI workloads.
