Which NetApp solution would you use to deploy cloud-based storage with enterprise-grade protection and efficiency?

• A. StorageGRID
• B. Cloud Volumes ONTAP
• C. BlueXP
• D. SnapMirror

Answer: (B)

Cloud Volumes ONTAP brings NetApp’s ONTAP data management to the cloud, delivering cloud-based storage with enterprise-grade protection and efficiency. It runs the ONTAP engine in major cloud environments, giving you robust data protection features such as point-in-time snapshots, replication for disaster recovery, and encryption at rest (and in transit) along with strong access controls. For efficiency, it provides inline data deduplication and compression, thin provisioning, and space-efficient cloning, helping you maximize usable capacity and lower storage costs. It also supports multiple protocols (NFS, SMB, iSCSI), making it suitable for diverse workloads. This combination—cloud-native deployment plus proven protection and efficiency features—makes Cloud Volumes ONTAP the best fit for deploying cloud-based storage with enterprise-grade protection and efficiency.
