What are the use cases - Windows, SQL, .NET Migrate/Optimize/Modernize
Lift & Shift to GCP - Migrate for Migrate - Native DB Replication Migrate - .NET apps to Windows Compute to SQL VM VMs
Reduce costs - e.g. Sole Tenant Reduce costs - e.g. Custom Reduce costs - e.g. Auto-scaling, Nodes VMs, SQL on Linux Pause/Resume
Modernize - e.g. Managed AD, Modernize - e.g. Managed Modernize - e.g. Move to .NET Core, Windows Containers Cloud SQL, Postgre or Mysql or containerize, rewrite in OSS Spanner © 2020 NetApp, Inc. All rights reserved. Google provides a complete migration assessment for free with our partners.

As you embark on your transformation journey, we will help you analyze your application stacks to design an appropriate migration strategy.
Based on the assessment, your strategy may include:
● Migration to GCP managed services ● Migration to containers on Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) ● Migration to Google Compute Engine (GCE) ● Migration to VMware-as-a-Service on GCP (GVE)

Securely expand your remote capabilities by shifting access to on-premises through GCP via VPN or IAP.
Facilitate business continuity and secure working from home with virtual desktop services through partners like Citrix, Frame, and Itopia.
Migrate legacy workloads to cloud reducing the need for staff to be on-site for maintenance and eliminating the risk of hardware vendors inability to provide spare parts.

IT Impact - Managing Islands of Data ❌ Managing "Islands of Data" in branch offices ❌ Excessive data growth and duplication of data ❌ Inefficient usage of server and storage resources, server sprawl ❌ Local storage, data replication and backups cause poor recovery times ❌ Complex IT Management
Local File Storage Data Replication EFFS / VDI Business Impact - Productivity Cloud Controllers ❌ Poor performance accessing data ❌ Unable to collaborate efficiently ❌ Data integrity issues ❌ Conflicting file versions, resulting in data loss ❌ Poor business productivity Global File Cache + Cloud Volumes for Google Cloud
FILE SERVER CONSOLIDATION Consolidate unstructured data into (hybrid) cloud Secure data using industry-standard technology Eliminate branch/remote backups
GLOBAL VDI – REGIONAL FOOTPRINTS Keeps VDI and data close to user population Simplify data management & BCDR Streamline regional storage & infrastructure
GLOBAL COLLABORATION Enable a “Single Set of Data” for users globally Improves digital transformation & workplace Provides global data access & collaboration The Benefits of Consolidation
CUTS STORAGE, INFRASTRUCTURE & DATA MANAGEMENT COSTS 80%
ELIMINATES COMPLEXITY < 15 & IMPROVES RTO/RPO (BCDR) mins
INCREASES BUSINESS 400% PRODUCTIVITY & PERFORMANCE Global File Cache (AVAILABLE TODAY)
Solution Overview
Multiple Cloud Platforms ● Consolidate Remote/Branch Office data into the public cloud Software-based ○ Creates a single set of data in Cloud Volumes
● Intelligent file caching of active data for optimal End-to-end Security performance
● Transparent access from branch locations through a Cost Savings global namespace with real time central file locking
○ Improve global data access and file collaboration Transparent Integration
● Reduce distributed storage costs High Performance
