NetApp Storage System Plug-In Achieves Oracle Validated Integration with Oracle Enterprise Manager 12c
Integration of Storage and System Monitoring to Reduce Cost and Complexity of Managing Business-Critical Applications
SUNNYVALE, Calif., Sept. 25, 2012 — NetApp (NASDAQ: NTAP), a Gold-level member of Oracle PartnerNetwork (OPN), today announced that it has achieved Oracle Validated Integration of the NetApp Storage System Plug-In version 1.0 with Oracle® Enterprise Manager 12c, extending the application-to-disk coverage of Oracle Enterprise Manager environments that include managed NetApp storage. The NetApp Storage System Plug-In delivers comprehensive availability, performance, and configuration information for NetApp storage controllers used in enterprise cloud environments and is part of the NetApp solution for Oracle Databases.
To achieve Oracle Validated Integration, Oracle partners are required to meet a stringent set of requirements that are based on the needs and priorities of the customers. This achievement can significantly reduce the cost and complexity of managing applications that run on NetApp® systems and Oracle technologies. Application administrators can now consolidate monitoring information in the Oracle Enterprise Manager 12c console and can perform detailed root cause analysis. Storage administrators can perform proactive monitoring of NetApp systems, assess the impact of storage performance problems on end-user services, and better align their efforts with business needs.
"NetApp and Oracle share a common vision of providing solutions that can help reduce IT cost and complexity and empower agile businesses," said Brendon Howe, vice president, Product and Solutions Marketing, NetApp. "For more than a decade, NetApp’s relationship with Oracle has involved product testing, enabling essential interoperability and innovation that accelerate business success. Customers can benefit from improved risk management and smoother upgrade capability, leading to lower total cost of ownership and greater overall satisfaction."
"Oracle Enterprise Manager’s rich partner ecosystem helps ensure that Oracle Enterprise Manager can provide deep, integrated manageability for heterogeneous environments, leveraging the collective expertise of our integration partners such as NetApp," said Dan Koloski, senior director, Product Management, Oracle. "An Oracle Validated Integration gives our joint customers confidence that the integration between the NetApp Storage System Plug-In version 1.0 and Oracle Enterprise Manager 12c has been validated and that the products work together as designed. We congratulate NetApp on their achievement and look forward to the adoption of this plug-in by our mutual customers."
