An example would be a shared container for my virtual machines, that are accessible to all of the hosts, enabling features like live migration between hosts. Each node performs its operations on the local storage, but I can use the “Nutanix Distributed File System” or NDFS to create an abstracted layer that offers many of the shared storage benefits. We utilize features offered by shared storage to make your life easier. And while the use case of virtual desktops is a great one, we can also run things like Splunk, Hadoop and classic server virtualization workloads.Īnd while we combine the benefits of a shared storage approach to run workloads, we’re not a storage company. We offer a combination of commodity hardware, combined with a piece of software, and sell that as a solution. Or, “So you do virtual desktop infrastructure?”.īut there’s more to it. “You are a storage company” is one of the classic pieces of feedback. Others put us in to a respective box or drawer. Some of the people I’ve get got the idea right away. Since I joined Nutanix, I’ve been in several customer and partner meetings.
We put things in boxes after a quick look, and every drawer has a different label and content to separate the stereotypes. We all know them, we all apply them in some form or the other. “You’re a blonde? Let me explain that joke to you once more”.
