NetApp, the data authority for hybrid cloud, has announced the integration of its industry-leading All Flash Storage Array (AFF) Series into leading motorcycle manufacturer Ducati\u2019s Information Technology (IT) environment.<\/p>\n
By leveraging NetApp\u2019s cloud-connected flash and data services, Ducati is able to modernise infrastructure, bolster compliance, strengthen performance and ensure business continuity during the transformation process.<\/p>\n
Ducati is a leading manufacturer of specially designed motorcycles that are characterised by high-performance Desmodromic engines, innovative design and cutting-edge technology. It was founded in 1926 to provide an exciting sports riding experience to its customers. As a data driven company, Ducati partners with NetApp to access and analyse a vast amount of data to apply throughout the business, including logistics, marketing and customer relationship management, in addition to racing data Ducati can use to optimise performance.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe closely collaborated with Ducati\u2019s IT team to understand its need for a cutting-edge data management infrastructure,\u201d said Fadi Kanafani, Senior Director Middle East and Africa at NetApp.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe NetApp AFF series immediately overhauls Ducati\u2019s data management and storage to build a powerful, modern IT infrastructure. The solution aids the IT team in critical decision making and implementing operational efficiency in bike production and other business areas.\u201d<\/p>\n
Through the new NetApp AFF data management system, Ducati can now easily manage about 200 applications and over 300 terabyte of data to grant reliable real-time access to the world\u2019s fastest enterprise all-flash storage from anywhere in the world, across multiple clouds, with full GDPR compliance.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur new flash systems will allow us to guarantee a quicker response to every business instance as well as increasing the speed of our prototyping and go-to-market,\u201d said Stefano Rendina, IT manager of Ducati Corse.<\/p>\n
Konstantin Kostenarov, CTO of Ducati Motor Holding, added: \u201cUsing data management solutions with integrated data protection and disaster recovery design helped us to face our development without duplicating our efforts.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt allows Ducati IT to focus on our business priorities: the future, both in racing and in production.\u201d<\/p>\n
