**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Nikitha S. | Cloud Engineer, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 03, 2022

**What do you like best about NetApp Data Infrastructure Insights?**

Best visualization of our AWS & Azure environment resources is upheld thanks to NetApp Cloud Insights. It effectively handles ONTAP latency issues by facilitating & troubleshooting data processing latency in CPU utilization latency, WAFL latency and Dblade latency issues. It also reduces user workload automatically by comparing the utilization across volumes in our cloud platform.

**What do you dislike about NetApp Data Infrastructure Insights?**

We go for its Premium pricing so that we get user data access auditing reports for our AWS & Azure environments. It would be helpful if they included it under its Standard pricing since we only need this feature included to meet our customer requirements & will reduce our billing cost every month by 50%. Apart from this, I didn't feel NetApp Cloud Insights has any downside worth mentioning.

**What problems is NetApp Data Infrastructure Insights solving and how is that benefiting you?**

NetApp Cloud Insights have a well-structured application gateway that effectively manages our security compliance standards & provides Keystore for working with HTTP request enhancements. We can utilize custom metrics for requirements such as granular provisioning, load balancing provisioning & perform real-time monitoring of our cloud infrastructure. Since it's a SaaS-based platform, it's lightweight & we can make use of the auto-forwarding feature to load our custom metrics to Cloud Insights while working with large environments in Amazon & Azure cloud platforms.

  ### 5. Senior Solution Architect, Data Management Subject Matter Expert

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Roger B. | Senior Solutions Architect, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 25, 2021

**What do you like best about NetApp Data Infrastructure Insights?**

Cloud Insights allows an end-to-end look at all parts of the infrastructure, eliminating the classic finger-pointing during an issue or outage. The clash of cultures between IT and end-users always points to a single, easy to define cause, but in my experience, symptoms always manifest where the root cause ISN'T.

Cloud Insights creates a homogenous look into the entire structure that makes an application work, from a single disk, through the SAN, compute, and most importantly, the application and database itself. Cloud Insights also shows what other parts of the infrastructure are being affected by overutilization in a seemingly separate part. With modern systems sharing so many resources, a rogue application or process can bring another different system to its knees.

But the most crucial function of Cloud Insights is its ability to gather and analyze data to predict what's coming next. Be it as mundane as future storage utilization to anomalous compute utilization or data access trends that could signal a security breach.

Like I say to my clients, "How much is it worth to you to know this? How much is it going to cost you NOT to know it?"

**What do you dislike about NetApp Data Infrastructure Insights?**

Cost-benefit analysis should be clearer.

**What problems is NetApp Data Infrastructure Insights solving and how is that benefiting you?**

As a consultant and not an end-user, I'm helping my clients solve the most critical problem every business needs to solve; what do I have? How am I using it? And how can I use it better?
