The expanded alliance utilizes NetApp Keystone, a subscription-based service, to deliver high-performance block storage with built-in security features, including real-time threat detection and recovery. This move is designed to help organizations manage critical workloads across private, public, and hybrid environments, providing a flexible model that adapts to shifting business requirements.

Alvaro Celis, Chief Partner and Ecosystem Officer at NetApp, added that the unified approach simplifies hybrid cloud adoption while ensuring consistent performance for data-intensive projects. Through this agreement, CGI will manage services on behalf of NetApp, while both firms co-design solutions to address the evolving digital demands of their global client base.
