The benefits that an on-premises private cloud can bring to an enterprise – automation , simplicity , agility – are becoming well known .

However , end users want the speed , flexibility , and access to the on-demand self-service of public cloud .
And it ’ s a challenge to match this responsiveness using internal resources that were not designed to deliver those types of on-demand services .
Many enterprises once thought that public cloud was the solution to these challenges .
But IT teams quickly learned that despite agility and easy consumption , public cloud is not the answer for every workload .
Build an Open , Private Cloud with NetApp HCI and Red Hat
NetApp ® is introducing a solution for rapidly and reliably deploying a private cloud , using open-source technologies from Red Hat ® and an enterprisescale hybrid cloud infrastructure from NetApp . The solution provides a unified private cloud foundation for containers and virtual machines that enables you to reduce infrastructure complexity , deliver resources on demand , and enable cloud-native application development on premises
NetApp ® HCI ’ s delivers the best foundation for a private cloud by providing multitenancy at extreme scale , guaranteed performance for every application , and dynamic scaling to satisfy business demands .
Enterprise IT teams today are striking a smarter balance between on-premises workloads – running on a private cloud – and workloads in the public cloud .
The success of this hybrid cloud approach requires a private cloud that can deliver agility , self-service , and full control over performance and availability costing less than public cloud .
When combined with technologies from Red Hat , such as Red Hat ® OpenShift Container Platform , Red Hat ® OpenStack ® Platform and Red Hat ® Ansible ®, the complete scope of a private cloud is enabled , including development and deployment of applications through virtual traditional or cloud-native methods , single point of management , orchestration , and monitoring .
