NetApp and NFL Power the Future of Intelligent Sports Through Data Innovation

In today’s world of professional sports, data is no longer just a tool; it is the competitive edge. From elevating player performance to delivering unforgettable fan experiences, data has become the foundation for how teams win and how fans connect.

NetApp, an intelligent data infrastructure company, has partnered with the NFL and the San Francisco 49ers to transform the game through the power of intelligent data.

Both the league and its teams rely on data to perform, adapt, and engage. For the NFL, efficiency and flexibility are essential as it expands its global footprint and manages complex hybrid systems that span on-premises and cloud environments.

For the 49ers, every home game at Levi’s Stadium is an opportunity to create 68,000 VIP experiences using real-time insights to elevate everything from player analysis to in-stadium entertainment. Together, these organizations are changing what it means to lead in the data-driven era of sports.
