GEC NEWS WIRENutanix, a leader in hybrid multi-cloud computing, has announced its participation at Gitex Technology Week 2021. The company, in its seventh appearance at the event, will share its vision and strategy for helping regional enterprises leverage the power of the cloud on their own terms. The technology spotlight will be on Nutanix’s simple, flexible, and cost-efficient platform – one that offers freedom of choice and enables true hybrid and multi-cloud computing.
Aaron White, Senior Sales Director, METI at Nutanix says, “We believe that organisations don’t need to be cloud-first, but rather cloud smart. There are enterprises in the region that are at different stages of their cloud adoption journey. Nutanix offers solutions that address the needs of every stage – whether it be modernisation of the datacentre and HCI implementation, or better managing the public cloud, or a combination of the two, as customers strategise on which applications and workloads need to run on the cloud and on-premise.”
“Gitex with its position as the premier technology event in the Middle East is an excellent platform to connect with our customers, collaborate with our key alliances and partners, and demonstrate our latest technology innovations.”
Nutanix will showcase three main solution categories – Cloud, End-User Computing and Databases. These technologies are designed to work holistically together to build a resilient IT infrastructure for organisations. They have security in their DNA, simplicity at their core, and flexibility to ensure the customer always has the power of choice. In June this year, the firm was named by Gartner, Inc. as a 2021 Gartner Peer Insights Customers’ Choice for Hyperconverged Infrastructure. This is the third year that Nutanix has been recognised as a Customers’ Choice vendor in this space. The company prides itself on having a 97% customer satisfaction rate, and an NPS score above 90.
Nutanix will be announcing some key developments with its alliances during Gitex. Company executives are keen to discuss the recent exciting partnership with RedHat, the world’s leading provider of open source solutions. The collaboration between the two vendors enables customers to more easily build, scale and manage containerised and virtualised cloud-native applications. The expanded partnership with HPE, in response to the increased demand for hybrid cloud, will be another area of focus. The two companies now offer Nutanix Era bundled with HPE ProLiant servers, as a service through HPE GreenLake.
Part of the discussions will be around new solutions that will soon be launched in the next few months. The company will be introducing strengthened ransomware protection features. Nutanix Clusters, a true hybrid cloud solution, has been released on AWS and is set to have worldwide availability on Azure very soon.
Nutanix will showcase its beautiful stand H6-C30 at Gitex, which has been designed to be an inviting, safe, and open space for great conversations. In addition to meeting rooms, there will be a live studio featured as well.
“This year the event is even more compelling for us. Not only are we back in person, but Gitex will be held just three weeks after Expo 2020 opens its doors to the world. With the Expo being a much-anticipated global event for Dubai, we are expecting a high percentage of new trade visitors at Gitex this year – which is exciting,” concludes Nada Khan, Field Marketing Director – METI at Nutanix.
