Integrating Hybrid Clouds with Amazon Web Services [ARR_NEP_DF-HCL-I]

OVERVIEW

Learn to implement a hybrid cloud solution with Amazon Web Services by using NetApp® Cloud Volumes ONTAP®. Connect an AWS Virtual Private Cloud and an on-premises data center to unify your infrastructure. Use NetApp Cloud Manager to move data and manage storage in the hybrid cloud. Learn about how NetApp cloud services are integrated into Cloud Manager to provide persistent storage for Kubernetes containers and enhance data protection, security, and compliance. Learn to optimize capacity and performance of Cloud Volumes ONTAP.

OBJECTIVES

• Describe how NetApp technologies can be used to build your data fabric
• Configure a AWS VPC and connect it to an on-premises data center with VPN Internet Protocol security (IPsec)
• Describe Cloud Volumes ONTAP architecture
• Install a Connector and deploy Cloud Volumes ONTAP
• Explain basic system administration tasks with Cloud Manager
• Copy data between an ONTAP based system and Cloud Volumes ONTAP for AWS for disaster recovery
• Use data tiering to Amazon S3 for Cloud Volumes ONTAP
• Use Cloud Volumes ONTAP as persistent storage for Kubernetes containers
• Identify performance and sizing options for Cloud Volumes ONTAP

AUDIENCE
