Nutanix (NASDAQ: NTNX), a hybrid multicloud computing company, and Pure Storage (NYSE: PSTG), known for advanced data storage solutions, have announced a new partnership. The goal is to deliver a deeply integrated solution for managing virtual workloads on scalable, modern infrastructure.
This collaboration comes at a time of major change in the virtualization market. Many enterprises are reviewing their virtual infrastructure strategies to increase efficiency and reduce costs. Gartner predicts that by 2028, 70% of large VMware customers will move 50% of their virtual workloads due to cost concerns.
The joint solution integrates Nutanix Cloud Infrastructure, powered by the Nutanix AHV hypervisor and Flow networking and security, with Pure Storage FlashArray over NVMe/TCP. This combination is designed for data-rich environments, including AI applications.
Customers will benefit from: A scalable, full-stack infrastructure combining Nutanix's virtual compute with Pure Storage's all-flash systems.
Built-in cyber resilience through micro-segmentation, encryption, and disaster recovery tools.
The solution gives IT teams a flexible and reliable alternative to existing platforms. It will be supported across major server hardware, including Cisco, Dell, HPE, Lenovo, and Supermicro.
Expedient is an early design partner. Anthony Jackman, Chief Innovation Officer, said the partnership will enhance service quality and client experience.
Tarkan Maner, Chief Commercial Officer at Nutanix, stated this will help customers modernize mission-critical applications. Maciej Kranz, GM at Pure Storage, added the solution is designed to meet the growing need for scalable, high-performance infrastructure.
Cisco is also expanding its FlashStack offering with Pure Storage to include Nutanix. According to Cisco's Jeremy Foster, the new FlashStack will offer improved visibility and integration through Cisco Intersight.
The solution is in development and expected to enter early access by summer 2025. General availability is planned for the end of 2025 through Nutanix and Pure Storage channel partners.
