A NetApp Case Study
Clavis Insight aggregates online retail data to provide manufacturers with actionable sales and customer insights, serving major brands like Unilever and P&G. Rapid customer growth and new product development drove a surge in data ingestion that pushed storage from 20% to 60% of their infrastructure cost after an initial AWS-only build, forcing the company to find a way to rein in exploding cloud storage expenses.
Working with Logicalis, Clavis moved storage to NetApp Private Storage and tested ONTAP Cloud for AWS, keeping compute in the cloud while offloading storage to a colocation solution. Deduplication and compression cut storage needs and costs by 67%, and NetApp FlexClone reduced database provisioning time from 3 days to 15 minutes, speeding development, enabling more frequent reporting, and giving Clavis hybrid-cloud flexibility across providers.
