SUNNYVALE, CA--(Marketwired - Oct 22, 2015) - NetApp, Inc. (NASDAQ: NTAP) today announced a special offer for buyers of select NetApp® all-flash systems, with a guaranteed1 3X increase in enterprise database performance compared to that of traditional, non-flash disk-based systems.
"Speed is now a clear differentiator for businesses of all types. Customers can add NetApp all-flash systems as a low-risk means to dramatically accelerate performance, with payback on their investment in as little as six months," said Lee Caswell, vice president, Product, Solutions and Services Marketing, NetApp. "Our 3X Performance Guarantee is appealing to enterprises with competitive systems coming off warranty or those doing data center consolidation to prepare for hybrid cloud."
