Case Study: Bandwidth accelerates DevOps and cuts storage provisioning from days to seconds with NetApp Trident

Bandwidth Accelerates Its DevOps Journey with Trident

Bandwidth, a communications platform-as-a-service provider powering voice, messaging and 911 services for major customers, needed to accelerate product delivery and remove friction between its small infrastructure team and a large developer base. Manual, slow storage provisioning was a bottleneck that kept developers waiting and limited the company’s ability to deliver new features quickly and reliably.

Bandwidth implemented Red Hat OpenShift for Kubernetes and NetApp Trident integrated with NetApp AFF storage to automate persistent storage provisioning. The change cut provisioning time from days to seconds, enabled on-demand self-service for developers, eliminated tickets, improved reliability, and sped time-to-market—while laying the groundwork for hybrid-cloud expansion with NetApp Cloud Volumes Service.
