History[edit]

NetApp headquarters in Sunnyvale, California

NetApp was founded in 1992 by David Hitz, James Lau,^[6] and Michael Malcolm^[4]^[7] as Network Appliance, Inc.^[8] At the time, its major competitor was Auspex Systems. In 1994, NetApp received venture capital funding from Sequoia Capital.^[9] It had its initial public offering in 1995. NetApp thrived in the internet bubble years of the mid 1990s to 2001, during which the company grew to $1 billion in annual revenue. After the bubble burst, NetApp's revenues quickly declined to $800 million in its fiscal year 2002. Since then, the company's revenue has steadily climbed.

In 2006, NetApp sold the NetCache product line to Blue Coat Systems.^[10]

In 2008, Network Appliance officially changed its legal name to NetApp, Inc. reflecting the nickname by which it was already well-known.^[11]
