The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), Office of Information and Technology (OI&T), Information Technology Operations and Services (ITOPS), Infrastructure Operations (IO), Enterprise Storage Service Line (ESSL) has a requirement to extend its Object Storage capabilities that supports Amazon S3 (Simple Storage Service) protocol to its customers with mission-critical and essential applications. VA requires a pair of brand name NetApp All-Flash FAS (AFF) A900 High-Availability (HA) storage controllers to be integrated into the existing NetApp storage cluster at the Philadelphia Information Technology Center (PITC) to support business continuity and disaster recovery.
