A NetApp Case Study
KoçSistem, Turkey’s largest IT company, opened the Istanbul One data center in 2015 to host cloud and managed services for hundreds of customers across 12,000 m². Faced with rapid data growth, cost pressure, and the need for high availability and fast service agility, KoçSistem needed a storage solution that delivered scalability, flexibility, simple management, and non‑disruptive operations.
KoçSistem selected NetApp software and systems—notably NetApp clustered Data ONTAP running on a FAS8060 cluster—to deliver software‑defined storage with features like Flash Pool, FlexClone, SnapMirror, and SnapRestore. The solution enabled non‑disruptive maintenance and dynamic load balancing (up to 99.999% reliability), let the existing team manage significant growth, sped up responses to customer needs, improved service quality and flexibility, and lowered overall cost and operational complexity.
