Cloud Insights for clouds near and far.
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We use NetApp Cloud Insights to help us map out our infrastructure by mapping resources to applications. It helps us rapidly narrow in on problems and pinpoints the technology causing the issue. CI helps prevent finger-pointing between departments during war room sessions. We also use it to find anomalies before they turn into problems. We have used it to eliminate waste in our environment by locating wasted resources in systems that are no longer in service.
