Episode #199
Introduction
In episode 199 of our SAP on Azure video podcast we talk about Azure NetApp Files.
A few weeks ago we already talked about the importance of high IO and throughput when it comes to storage. From an Azure side we have some really powerful storage solutions. Among them is Azure NetApp Files, a first party integration of NetApp Files in Azure. This service has been around for over 5 years and we already talked about it in the past. Now I am happy to have Geert back with us to share with us the latest news on Azure NetApp File.
