This performance elevated NetApp’s position from third to first, quarter-on-quarter, in the local AFA segment, with a market share of 30.1 percent by vendor revenue. The company has retained its position as the second-largest vendor by vendor revenue (tied), quarter-on-quarter, in the AFA segment for the APAC region, according to IDC.

Across the APAC region in Q2 2021, NetApp achieved 19.5 percent and 15.1 percent year-on-year growth for its AFA and Open Networked business segments, respectively, outpacing overall market growth.. This was driven by strong performance in markets such as India, Taiwan, and Hong Kong.
