Sponsored Session: NetApp - Cloud Native Application-aware Data Management in multi

Cloud Native Application-aware Data Management in multi-cloud environments is a challenge for enterprises adopting Kubernetes. NetApp offers a solution to automate backend storage configuration, manage cloud native applications and persistent data from multi-cloud Kubernetes clusters from a single pane of glass, and easily snapshot, backup, clone and migrate applications with their data to another Kubernetes cluster.

• Kubernetes is being used to support stateful applications, including databases, but there are challenges around data persistence and business continuity in multi-cloud environments
• Containers are different from VMs and require a different approach to support applications and their data
• Automating backend storage configuration and managing cloud native applications and persistent data from multi-cloud Kubernetes clusters from a single pane of glass is key to addressing these challenges
• NetApp's solution allows for easy snapshot, backup, clone and migration of applications with their data to another Kubernetes cluster

NetApp's Astra dashboard provides a consistent experience for managing workloads on different clouds. It allows for the management of two applications and three different clusters, including clusters registered in Azure and GKE. The dashboard shows the nodes, storage classes, and resources being managed for each cluster, as well as the ability to configure data protection policies, take snapshots and backups, and manage persistent volumes.

Sharing of Personal Information with Sponsors In order to facilitate networking and business relationships at the event, you may choose to visit a third partyʼs virtual booth or to access sponsored content. You are never required to visit third party booths or to access sponsored content. When visiting a booth (e.g. by clicking on a third partyʼs logo in the Solutions Showcase or exhibitor directory, and any actions within the booth thereafter including viewing resources), when accessing sponsored sessions in the Sponsor Theater, or by participating in sponsored activities, the third party will receive some of your registration data. This data includes your first name, last name, title, company, address, email, standard demographics questions (i.e. job function, industry), and details about the sponsored content or resources you interacted with. If you choose to interact with a virtual booth or access sponsored content, you are explicitly consenting to receipt and use of such data by the third-party recipients, which will be subject to their own privacy policies.This is an on-demand session and will be available for the duration of the event.In this session, you’ll learn about how to address application data management challenges that enterprises of all sizes adopting Kubernetes face today. Such challenges include protecting application data from accidental corruption, recovering applications from human-made or natural disasters, and being compliant with regulatory data residency needs when running and scaling your Kubernetes clusters in a multi-cloud environment.We conclude this session with a demonstration that show how to:Automate the backend storage configuration and provision persistent volumes when needed.Manage your cloud native application and persistent data from multi-cloud Kubernetes clusters from a single pane of glass.Easily snapshot, backup, clone and migrate applications with their data to another Kubernetes cluster.
