Managing large amounts of data can be challenging, especially when you also have to manage the storage system where the data lives. So to make life easier for storage administrators, NetApp offers a data ops toolkit that can offload some of the work associated with storage management. On this Tech ONTAP Podcast episode, we welcome the creator of the toolkit, Michael Oglesby, to talk about the latest updates and where best to use it.

We’re diving deep into AI at scale with NetApp experts Bobby Oomen and David Arnette. From NVIDIA SuperPod (think AI factories powering massive LLM training) to FlexPod solutions that bring inference into everyday enterprise workloads, we unpack what’s happening at the cutting edge of AI infrastructure.

You’ll hear how NetApp and NVIDIA are collaborating to solve one of AI’s biggest challenges—data management—with tools like SnapMirror, FlexCache, and FlexClone. We also explore why inference is becoming just as important (if not more) than training, and what that shift means for enterprises looking to integrate AI into their operations.

Whether you’re curious about NVIDIA Cloud Partner (NCP) offerings, KV cache innovations, or how Cisco and NetApp are pushing FlexPod into the AI era, this episode is packed with insights you won’t want to miss.
