NetApp® (NASDAQ: NTAP), the Intelligent Data Infrastructure company, today announced that it has received the 2026 Google Cloud Infrastructure Modernization Partner of the Year for Storage Award.
NetApp is being recognized for its achievements in the Google Cloud ecosystem, helping joint customers modernize their infrastructure and run enterprise workloads on Google Cloud using Google Cloud NetApp Volumes.
“The Google Cloud Partner Awards honor the strategic innovation and measurable value our partners bring to customers,” said Kevin Ichhpurani, President, Global Partner Ecosystem and Channels, Google Cloud. “We are proud to name NetApp a 2026 Google Cloud Partner Award winner, celebrating their role in driving customer success over the last year.”
The Google Cloud Infrastructure Modernization Partner of the Year for Storage Award recognizes partners that have helped their customers modernize their infrastructure by leveraging Google Cloud's innovative solutions, resulting in increased agility, scalability, and cost-efficiency. NetApp’s technology partnership with Google Cloud led to the development of Google Cloud's first-party service, Google Cloud NetApp Volumes, enabling joint customers to more easily adopt Intelligent Data Infrastructure, meet the needs of modern enterprise workloads, and prepare for the future.
“This recognition for the seventh time reflects the work we’ve done with Google Cloud to help customers run enterprise workloads in the cloud without rearchitecting,” said Pravjit Tiwana, Senior Vice President and General Manager, Cloud Storage and Services at NetApp. “With Google Cloud NetApp Volumes, customers can bring their data into Google Cloud and use it for applications and AI without adding complexity.”
This is NetApp’s seventh Google Cloud Partner of the Year award. Over the past year, NetApp and Google Cloud expanded Google Cloud NetApp Volumes with new capabilities, including block storage and tighter integration with Google Cloud services such as Google Cloud Assist and Gemini CLI Extensions. These updates make it frictionless for customers to bring their data into Google Cloud and use it directly with Google’s AI services.
