Honda Research and Development of America is in the process of aggressively transforming its IT offerings to that of IT as a Service ('ITaaS') by embracing a Software Defined Infrastructure environment ('SDI') on the NetApp Hybrid Cloud offerings. This session highlights Honda's journey in the DevOps space, with demos on:

  • using Ansible to automate workflows
  • Trident to provision storage on ONTAP & HCI for their OpenShift environment
  • a CI/CD workflow for custom applications and working on containerization of existing and new applications.

2022-2 Verizon: Persistent Storage and Cloud Bursting for Kubernetes

It is safe to say that Verizon Media (formerly Yahoo) is a big fan of Kubernetes, having one of the largest Kubernetes deployments in the world (almost 100K containers). Trident, NetApp's dynamic storage orchestrator can greatly help simplify storage for Kubernetes users and provide a strong set of data management capabilities. This session will focus on the importance of persistent storage for stateful containerized applications and how Trident helps automate storage consumption, with a demo of configuring Trident for a private and public cloud.
