In 2020, our site-based AS/400 infrastructure was going to the end of its life cycle. So, we started a market investigation for an appliance that could host our new SQL server environment. We also selected a private cloud data center inside the Telecom Italia facility in Rome. After the hardware selection, NetApp won the challenge, and we decided to fill the data center room with the NetApp H-series appliance. We went live with the new data center on March 6, 2021.

We are mainly using it for lab virtualization with GPU and everything else. So, it is mainly for the lab environment.

I am a consultant, and it is being used in our customer's company. We are a partner and reseller.

NetApp HCI is used for enterprise-scale hybrid cloud infrastructure and we are using the standard version.
