The Challenge
Nutanix, a global leader in cloud software and a pioneer in hyperconverged infrastructure solutions, recognized the need to help companies modernize and deploy their applications in a hybrid, multicloud world. The company sought to leverage its technology in more than 20,000 of the world's data centers to manage any app at any location for their hybrid multicloud environments. However, achieving this required a strategic partnership that could deliver solutions to accelerate customers’ digital transformation and business outcomes. Five years ago, Nutanix engineers began porting their software onto HPE ProLiant DL servers to enable integrated hybrid cloud solutions. The initial relationship has now evolved into a true strategic alliance, with HPE and Nutanix expanding their relationship to offer customers an extensive product portfolio.
About The Customer
San Jose, California-based Nutanix is a global leader in cloud software and a pioneer in hyperconverged infrastructure solutions, making clouds invisible, freeing customers to focus on their business outcomes. Nutanix technology is used in more than 20,000 of the world's data centers to leverage a single platform to manage any app at any location for their hybrid multicloud environments.

The Solution
The solution involved a strategic partnership with HPE to deliver solutions that accelerate customers’ digital transformation and business outcomes. The partners developed solutions that are already optimized for different workloads, such as virtual desktop infrastructure, private cloud, and database management. These workloads run on-premises—at the edge, in the data center, or in a co-location—further enhancing customer agility. Furthermore, HPE GreenLake cloud services can also eliminate the expense of overprovisioned infrastructure through a pay-per-use consumption model. Customers pay for what they use with the added benefit of easily scaling services up or down at any time to match their business needs. The portfolio includes HPE ProLiant DX platforms and HPE GreenLake Cloud Services optimized to run Nutanix Enterprise Cloud Software. Additionally, Nutanix and HPE recently extended the collaboration with the Nutanix Database Era solution available through HPE GreenLake.
