NetApp CEO Kurian On Turning Corner On Growth, Competing With Dell EMC And Fending Off Pure Storage

#NetApp is on a roll. The company last week reported its second consecutive quarter of revenue and profit growth driven by its successful transition from legacy technologies such as its old 7-mode storage operating system to new strategic focuses on all-flash storage technology, its modern #OnTap operating system, and its hybrid cloud strategy. NetApp CEO George Kurian sat down with CRN to discuss his company's transformation, as well as look at what's coming with NetApp's upcoming technology plans and its September Insight conference. One topic was off-limits. Kurian declined to discuss NetApp's acquisition of two small vendors: Immersive Partner Solutions, a developer of software to validate multiple converged infrastructures through their lifecycles, and PlexiStor, a provider of software that turns off-the-shelf servers into high-performance converged infrastructure offerings with persistent memory technologies.
