OVHcloud is combining its expertise in Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) and Platform-as-a-Service (Platform-as-a-Service) solutions to help organisations with their digital transformation by providing a ready-to-use toolkit. The Enterprise File Storage service launch, designed in conjunction with NetApp and combining OVHcloud's know-how with NetApp's cloud storage management capabilities, exemplifies this rapid integration of software technologies.

OVHcloud is expanding its portfolio of cloud file storage solutions with an offering developed in collaboration with NetApp, a world leader in this field. Enterprise File Storage is designed to help organisations transition to the cloud by meeting their requirements for sovereignty, high performance and resilience, while ensuring seamless integration with the OVHcloud universe at a predictable price.

Enterprise File Storage aims at organisations with applications with high operational requirements and need a highly available file storage service. The service is suitable for a variety of use cases, including organisations that are already cloud-based and want to facilitate enterprise data sharing between different applications hosted on OVHcloud services, as well as organisations that already have their own NetApp on-premise infrastructure and want to offload workloads or start their cloud migration.

This all-in-one platform, which is based on NetApp's ONTAP file system technology and is fully managed by OVHcloud, offers tremendous simplicity of adoption while lowering cloud storage costs, improving application speed, and maintaining data security and compliance. Customers benefit from a versatile, scalable, and high-performance infrastructure with storage capacity ranging from 1 to 58TB per service with Enterprise File Storage. Because it uses the industry-proven NFS protocol, the Enterprise File Storage service is suitable for a variety of enterprise environments and applications. Because of the combination of SSD technology and NVMe caches, it provides great performance in terms of IOPS and throughput.

“As Hybrid Cloud is a high priority for over 77% of NetApp customers, first party cloud services based on NetApp ONTAP are instrumental to make these projects become reality.” Says Peter Wüst, VP CTO WW Enterprise & Commercial Business, NetApp. “We are glad to see OVHCloud making the choice of NetApp as a trusted technology partner for their Enterprise File Storage service”.

We are pleased to work with a recognised expert partner like NetApp to help our customers maximise and get the most out of their data by providing a unified experience across our various cloud storage solutions,” said Thierry Souche, Chief Technology Officer at OVHcloud. “Our customers can now access highly efficient and available storage resources, leveraging key features of ONTAP software and fully managed by OVHcloud.
