Key Features

Everything you need in one device

🗄️

Nutanix AOS Scale-Out Storage

AOS (Acropolis OS) is the distributed storage fabric that makes HCI possible — providing data compression, deduplication, erasure coding, tiering, encryption, and replication across all nodes in the cluster.

💻

AHV Integrated Hypervisor

AHV is Nutanix's built-in enterprise hypervisor — included at no extra cost. Provides full VM lifecycle management, GPU passthrough/vGPU, live migration, HA, and native Kubernetes integration without VMware licensing costs.

👁️

Prism Central Management

Prism Central provides a unified HTML5 management UI for all Nutanix clusters, VMs, storage, and networking — with REST APIs, RBAC, and reporting. One console manages unlimited nodes across multiple sites and clouds.

⚙️

Nutanix Cloud Manager (NCM)

NCM automates infrastructure operations and IT service delivery — intelligent cost metering, chargeback, self-service marketplace, Security Central for compliance scanning, and Calm for application automation with blueprints.

☁️

Hybrid & Multi-Cloud Ready

NCP runs natively on AWS (NC2), Azure, and Google Cloud — providing identical operations, APIs, and management for on-premises and cloud workloads. Migrate VMs bi-directionally between on-prem and public cloud.

🔒

Built-In Security & DR

Native microsegmentation via Nutanix Flow, VM-level data encryption, STIG-compliant builds, and integrated Disaster Recovery with RPO from 1 hour (Starter) down to 0 seconds (NearSync, Ultimate).

☸️

Kubernetes & Cloud-Native

NCI Pro and Ultimate include unlimited managed Kubernetes clusters via Nutanix Kubernetes Engine (NKE). Cloud Native AOS (2025) extends Nutanix enterprise storage to bare-metal and EKS without a hypervisor.

🔄

One-Click Lifecycle Management

Nutanix Lifecycle Manager (LCM) coordinates non-disruptive rolling upgrades of AOS, AHV, firmware, and drivers across the entire cluster — from a single click in Prism Central.

About the Nutanix Cloud Platform

Nutanix Cloud Platform (NCP) is the software product that transformed the data centre industry by converging server, storage, and networking into a single hyperconverged platform managed through one interface. Over 27,000 organisations worldwide have deployed NCP to eliminate the complexity of traditional three-tier infrastructure — separate storage arrays, SAN fabric, and hypervisor licensing — replacing it with a software-defined approach that runs on commodity x86 hardware.

NCP combines two primary product suites: Nutanix Cloud Infrastructure (NCI) and Nutanix Cloud Manager (NCM). NCI provides the core HCI capabilities — AOS distributed storage, AHV hypervisor, Disaster Recovery, and Prism management — while NCM adds intelligent operations automation, multi-cloud cost governance, security compliance, and application blueprint automation. Together they provide a complete enterprise cloud platform from a single subscription.

The platform is hardware-agnostic: NCP runs on Nutanix NX appliances, Dell XC (OEM), HPE SimpliVity nodes, Lenovo servers, and certified third-party hardware. This gives organisations the flexibility to buy the hardware vendor they prefer whilst standardising on Nutanix software operations. In 2025, Nutanix was named a Leader in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Distributed Hybrid Infrastructure for the second consecutive time, recognised for both Ability to Execute and Completeness of Vision.

Use Cases

Ideal for a wide range of deployments

🏢

Server Virtualisation Consolidation

Replace three-tier VMware infrastructure with Nutanix HCI — eliminating separate storage arrays, SAN switches, and per-socket VMware licensing in a single platform.

💼

VDI — Virtual Desktop Infrastructure

Nutanix AOS intelligent tiering and Prism Central management makes Citrix and Horizon VDI deployments dramatically simpler and more performant than traditional NAS/SAN infrastructure.

🔄

Disaster Recovery & Business Continuity

NearSync and Sync replication provide RPO = 0 active-active DR between sites — managed as a simple SLA policy in Prism Central, tested with one-click runbook automation.

☁️

Hybrid & Multi-Cloud

Run the same NCP software on-premises and in AWS/Azure/GCP with identical operations — enabling true workload portability and cloud bursting without re-architecting applications.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Q. Do I need VMware to run Nutanix?

No — Nutanix AHV is a fully featured enterprise hypervisor included in NCP at no additional cost. Most new Nutanix deployments use AHV to eliminate VMware licensing costs, while NCP also supports VMware ESXi and Hyper-V for existing environments.

Q. What is the difference between NCI and NCP?

NCI (Nutanix Cloud Infrastructure) is the infrastructure layer — AOS, AHV, DR, and Prism. NCP (Nutanix Cloud Platform) bundles NCI with NCM (Nutanix Cloud Manager) for a complete platform including automation, governance, and security compliance.

Q. Can Nutanix run on non-Nutanix hardware?

Yes — NCP is hardware-agnostic. It runs on Nutanix NX appliances, Dell XC, HPE DX, Lenovo HX, and validated third-party servers. Licensing is portable across all certified platforms.

Q. Is Nutanix available in the UK?

Yes — Servnet is an authorised UK Nutanix partner. We supply NCP software licensing, Nutanix NX hardware, and provide deployment and ongoing support for UK enterprises.
