About Nutanix
Nutanix is a hybrid cloud platform that runs virtual machines, containers and AI workloads on one software stack. It is built for organizations that want to run applications in their own data centers, in public clouds, or in both.
What it does
The platform combines compute, storage and networking into one managed system. IT teams can run existing virtual machines, build container-based applications and deploy AI workloads from the same management layer. The goal is to keep one operating model across private and public environments, so staff do not need a different process for each location.
Key features
- Virtual machines and containers on one stack

Who it's for

Pricing and good to know
Pricing is not stated on the homepage, so expect to request a quote from the vendor. Deployments usually involve planning for hardware, networking and application migration. Smaller teams may find the scope larger than they need for a simple setup.
