Great migrations, useful integrations, and offers good data replication
The local libraries from NetApp to NetApp are good. This way, we don't have to put the middleman in between to do the transition or conversion. The NetApp Cloud Volume Services for AWS has been helping migrate workloads onto the cloud. We did migrate a couple of native applications into AWS using this, and it was helpful. In terms of the integration with AWS native services, I did not configure it by myself. There was another team who did it. That said, I presume they didn't run into any issues, which is why we are using it. While the solution did not help us reduce the amount of storage, it allowed us to have data replicated across on-premises and in the cloud, so that we have a backup in DR. While it did not reduce the footprint, it helped DR expansion. It increased redundancy. Since deploying the product, we have not been affected by ransomware or other external threats.

Cost-effectiveness and seamless integration boost long-term data management while file retrieval needs improvement
Wasabi is cost-effective, has no ingress and egress fees, and is reliable. Wasabi helps us in maintaining our enterprise-grade safety requirements because it's highly functional, allowing us to maintain redundancies required for some of our solutions. Wasabi is highly integratable because many systems successfully use it. It is extremely useful in facilitating seamless adoption into our current operational procedures. Many of the solutions that are on Kubernetes use Wasabi integration for their S3, and increasingly, virtually all of them now use Wasabi for their integrations. Wasabi's features of eliminating egress and API requests fees have ensured that we can run our social media sites without charging users for data, which increases the adoption of our platform. Wasabi's simplified pricing model is phenomenal in helping our organization predict and manage cloud costs.
