DUBAI, UAE – Nutanix (NASDAQ: NTNX), a leader in hybrid multicloud computing, today announced it has been recognized as a Challenger in the 2025 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Container Management. This marks Nutanix's recognition for the first time in this Magic Quadrant following the launch of its Nutanix Kubernetes Platform (NKP) solution last year. Nutanix launched NKP following the integration of D2iQ, Inc.'s Kubernetes Platform, enabling Nutanix to quickly deliver a production-ready enterprise solution for managing cloud native applications across diverse environments. This gives Nutanix customers the ability to run modern and traditional applications on the same platform anywhere, including in their datacenter, at the edge, or in public clouds on either virtualized underlays, bare metal, or native public cloud Kubernetes® environments. 'We're delighted to be recognized as a Challenger in the 2025 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Container Management, which we believe is testament to our relentless focus on product innovation and customer success,' said Lee Caswell, SVP Product and Solutions Marketing at Nutanix. 'Our open and complete NKP solution complements our existing portfolio both architecturally and in go-to-market execution, giving customers a seamless path to modernize their applications while simplifying operations across hybrid multicloud environments.'
