NetApp Cloud Tiering
The NetApp Cloud Tiering solution is called FabricPool.
FabricPool is a NetApp tiering technology that enables automated tiering of data from an all-flash appliance to low-cost object storage tiers either on or off premises. This technology is a form of storage pools which are collections of storage volumes exported to a shared storage environment.
Cloud tiering and data tiering (or data archiving) can deliver significant data storage cost savings as part of a cloud storage strategy by offloading unused cold data to more cost-efficient cloud storage solutions. The approach you take to NetApp tiering can either create an easy path to the cloud with native access and full use of data in the cloud or it can create costly cloud egress and lock-in.
