I don't get all this relationship between "cloud object storage" and the dawn of Netapp as stated in the storagemojo article.
For me Netapp is, like said by KaiserPro, a multi-purpose system where I can do FC, iSCSI, NFS, CIFS, with HA, snapshots etc., where I can host my VMs, my Windows files, my block-access disks for Databases etc.. It's not the place were I'd just put files that I'll serve via a S3-like API interface...
