NetApp’s strategy is to focus on optimized compute, storage and desktop in the cloud, Woodall said. ![]() “Customers will be looking at if they want to buy new desktops or go with Desktop as a Service.” “We’re seeing component shortages and security driving people to look at as-a-service offerings and the cloud,” he said. Spot PC will likely become an important service to offer customers looking to the cloud to solve some key challenges, Woodall said. This is one of those quiet things that pop up from NetApp once in a while, and not a part of its regular product introduction cadence.” “Now Spot is being combined with other NetApp assets to give cloud-based virtual desktops. “NetApp in June introduced Spot Wave, which runs on Apache Spark to automate the compute layer for cloud applications,” Woodall told CRN. Spot PC shows that NetApp is moving at cloud speed with its technology portfolio, said John Woodall, vice president of engineering and NetApp enablement at General Datatech, a Dallas-based solution provider and longtime NetApp partner. “But we do it all over the cloud with a cloud-like interface and all the security and auto-scaling from zero to hundreds of virtual desktops in seconds, with a very easy-to-use interface for visibility, provisioning and field testing.” “With traditional VDI, you need to know the desktop, the storage, the compute, the security,” he said. Making VDI work well at the enterprise level traditionally requires businesses to focus on the management and cost, he said. Spot PC by NetApp forms a complete cloud-based infrastructure on which to run Microsoft’s new Windows 365, a cloud service that runs Windows 10 or Windows 11 in Azure, Shachar said. Those spot instances gave the company its name.ĬloudJumper developed cloud software for managing virtual desktop infrastructure across AWS, Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud. It did this in part by taking advantage of compute spot instances available from Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud Platform. Spot developed technology to drive continuous optimization of workloads running on a public cloud while ensuring that those applications follow customer SLAs (service-level agreements) and SLOs (service-level objectives). “We’ve developed a service that combines all the automation and cost optimization that Spot has offered for years with the virtualization technology of CloudJumper to offer a VDI infrastructure,” Shachar told CRN. Spot PC by NetApp combines the intellectual property the company received with its 2020 acquisitions of Spot and of CloudJumper into a single offering to provide a complete cloud-based infrastructure on which to build a virtual desktop infrastructure, or VDI, with Microsoft’s new Windows 365, said Amiram Shachar, vice president and general manager of Spot by NetApp. I decided to ask the seller to estimate the shipping fees first.NetApp is using two recent acquisitions to go all in on virtual desktop infrastructure with the introduction this week of Spot PC by NetApp. I was like “should I buy it or not, because I already have the same Cloudjumper figure but no Valka.”. I find this beautiful Cloudjumper with masked Valka along with 2 little dragons from a seller located in Trois-Rivière. □ : I was checking Marketplace just in case I find something interesting to buy (so HTTYD content obviously). ![]() The best part is that she sold me this figure for a unbelievable price : 0.45 ¢ ! Yes, yes, you read that correctly ! So, yep, I paid him only 15 $ CAD shipping included ! Youhouuuuuu ! I will cherish my big owl-looked dragon forever ! I LOVE HIM ! She finally post me my Cloudjumper figure on May 8, 2020. However, because of the COVID-19 crisis, the seller will wait until going out for non essentiel shopping is safe again to post me my Cloudjumper. On April 4, 2020, the last time was the good one because I saw it on Marketplace and the seller accepted to ship it to me from Ontario. The third time, the person was 1h30 away from me in car, so I ask her if she could send it to my post even if I pay more for it and she didn't want to. The second time I saw this figure for sell, the seller never responded to my message. The figure was for sell by someone living really near for 20 $ but I decided to don't take it because of its price (witch was after all really low according to its rarity). □ : I finally find this Cloudjumper figure after like 3 years of search and bad luck ! I saw it 4 times on a website where we can sell our own used objects. Valka & Cloudjumper (unmasked) (Cloudjumper only) ✔️
