In a rapidly changing business climate, a solid IT infrastructure and the ability to

offer customers high availability and rapid turnaround times is crucial. “NetApp

clustered Data ONTAP® has helped us move toward a true zero-downtime

environment and the ability to scale out and up, ultimately to offer truly flexible

solutions for our customers.David Glambruno,Senior Vice President and CIO of Revlon

“Regardless of the ultimatecomputing destination…”

“…the CIO will maintain ownership of the organization’s data. The introduction of new multicloud architectures makes data governance more complex because data is distributed, and not under direct control. Our vision is to create an enterprise data management solution, with the clustered Data ONTAP® operating system at its core, which will span the customers’ data storage landscape, irrespective of data type or location.”
