DESCRIPTION

Nutanix radically simplifies enterprise datacenters by replacing legacy storage, such as SAN and NAS arrays, with a modular, scale-out appliance. Nutanix delivers web-scale IT infrastructure to medium and large enterprises with its software-driven Virtual Computing Platform, which natively converges compute and storage into a single solution to drive unprecedented simplicity of the datacenter. Customers can start with a few servers and scale to thousands, with fully predictable performance and economics.

What the Experts Are Saying

Enterprises are struggling “to meet service levels with a rigid storage architecture, for example, that can’t keep up with a highly consolidated and automated virtual server environment.”

COST

“Storage accounts for 40% to 60% of the total cost of SHVD cost per desktop.”
