Rubrik announced it is
extending its partnership with NetApp, a global cloud-led, data-centric
software company, to offer closer product integration for their customers and
partners. With this deepened collaboration and Rubrik's leading Cloud Data
Management Platform to be available on NetApp's Global Price List (GPL), the
two market-leading companies will simplify customers' transition to the cloud
and provide modern data protection, security, compliance and governance
alongside high-density and cost-efficient object storage.
From its inception, Rubrik has focused on delivering leading cloud
data management products. Now, coupled with NetApp's expansive hybrid cloud
strategy and offerings, this extended partnership will ease the movement of
data across on-premises to the cloud and multi-cloud mobility to ease recovery,
no matter where data is stored. Together, NetApp and Rubrik will remove the
data management complexity by offering a common set of data management tools
across a data fabric.
NetApp and Rubrik will continue their momentum into the next
fiscal year with NetApp having the ability to resell Rubrik products, Rubrik Go
Business Edition and Rubrik Go Foundation Edition and accelerate sales through
NetApp go-to-market efforts. This partnership is also important for partners of
both companies and expands the access for Rubrik partners to more seamlessly
connect with the NetApp partner ecosystem, unlocking a broader solution and new
possibilities for the future.
"This extended partnership is game changing for our partners and
customers because we will have the ability to offer Rubrik's modern data
protection on top of our industry leading systems, software, and cloud service
solutions," said Wendy Bahr, Chief Commercial Officer of Rubrik. "We're
thrilled to deepen our partnership with NetApp and look forward to our future
innovations we'll be delivering together."
The combination of Rubrik Cloud Data Management in conjunction
with enhanced NetApp ONTAP software offers greater consolidation, deeper cloud
integration and continuous data availability for improved simplicity,
efficiency and protection of business-critical enterprise applications.
"Our customers are experiencing a rapid acceleration to
data-driven digital transformation and implementing hybrid multi-cloud
solutions to drive innovation," said Kim Stevenson, senior vice president and
general manager, NetApp. "Rubrik and NetApp together are delivering data
management solutions for digital transformation in a hybrid multi-cloud
world."
"The partnership between Rubrik and NetApp is exciting as
they represent a foundational element of the journey to a resilient, efficient
and effective hybrid multi-cloud. Rubrik's Data Management Platform and
NetApp's Data Fabric enable our clients to create best-of-class services for
their traditional and Cloud Native workloads." said Juan Orlandini, Chief
Architect, Insight Enterprises. "These capabilities, coupled with
Insight's support and managed services, enable organizations to reduce
complexity and quickly capitalize on the value of hybrid cloud."
"This deeper partnership between Rubrik and NetApp is the
natural extension of both companies' strategy of providing data management
services for customers no matter where they deploy workloads and will allow
customers to realize the full potential of protected data storage and cloud
data management," said John Woodall, Vice President, Engineering of GDT.
"With the addition of Rubrik on NetApp's Global Price List, GDT can now
even more easily meet our growing customers' needs for robust data protection,
governance, compliance, and security, across the hybrid multi-cloud landscape
most customers are adopting. This partnership between NetApp and Rubrik expands
and accelerates the requirement to give customers the freedom of choice and
flexibility they need to derive value from their data; no matter where it best
serves their needs, all while keeping their data secure and
protected."
