What is your primary use case for Nutanix AHV Virtualization?

For Nutanix AHV Virtualization, we are using it for virtualization of our environments, VMs, general applications, production, and databases. All these are use cases for us.

We are offering Nutanix AHV Virtualization to customers who are looking for an HCI solution on platforms that have a mixed kind of servers, such as Cisco, Dell, or HP. AHV supports the data center consolidation efforts by allowing lots of customers who are using SQL and Oracle to effectively use the HCI solution without issues in their environment, as we have deployed the database services into the same environment. AHV handles disaster recovery and business continuity by allowing us to put the node cluster at the DR site, making it easy to replicate the entire workload from DC to DR without any third-party replication software.

My clients typically use Nutanix AHV Virtualization to modernize their existing data center. They were previously using Hyper-V as a hypervisor with their on-prem storage, and we have proposed a deployment plan for this change.

In our environment, all of our systems are virtualized on Nutanix AHV Virtualization ( /products/nutanix-ahv-virtualization-reviews ). We are technically in distribution warehousing, mainly focused on sales and retail.

We are working on on-premises cloud projects. For these projects, we needed to choose a virtualization option like VMware, Microsoft Hyper V, or Nutanix AHV. Nutanix AHV was chosen because it provides a cost-effective solution compared to other options without incurring license costs for the hypervisor. We are primarily using it for Singapore government projects, where reducing deployment costs is crucial.

I have used it to host a virtualized environment.

Regarding our clusters, we have deployed multiple AOS clusters with the virtualization hypervisor ASV on them, and we are running VMs on it. For the Veeam instances, we are backing up the VMs that are running on Nutanix infrastructure. For that, Veeam has a proxy called ASV proxy, especially for the Nutanix VMs. That's what you deploy on a cluster, and then you are able to take a backup of the VMs.

The solution is tightly integrated with Nutanix hyperconverged infrastructure.

We use the solution to make virtual machines.

We are a service provider managing 80+ customers, around one million virtual desktops. Since we are part of the virtual desk practice, all our customers use AHV specifically for virtual desktops.

Customers often choose Nutanix AHV Virtualization for its leading position in the hyperconverged segment. The primary use case is virtualizing workloads, whether migrating from a physical environment or transitioning from other virtualization platforms like VMware or Hyper-V.

We majorly use Nutanix AHV Virtualization for server consolidation.

I've configured the solutions for two or three customers. It's my first time with Prism Central, Prism Element, and the CVM (Control Virtual Machine).

This product aims to provision applications and resources in the IT environment and protect the overall IT infrastructure.

Nutanix AHV Virtualization is used for the migration from the physical to the virtual.

We use the Nutanix AHV Virtualization solution for production purposes only. We use other solutions for application servers, such as on-premises physical ESX servers.

There are a lot of use cases of Nutanix AHV Virtualization involving general IT workloads, I/O workloads, and big data workloads.

Our primary use case is virtualization and Citrix Workload (VDI and SBC).

We use this solution for server virtualization. It is a good product.

The solution is used for virtualization.

We are hosting our mission-critical applications on the Nutanix cluster. Because of our business needs and application requirements, we have some limitations in terms of migrating our services to the cloud. As a hospital, we need ultra-low latency applications that are very critical for patient care. We need our solution within the same building so that latency requirements can be met. We have a huge amount of data and accessing it is more easily feasible within the data center within our building.

This is for on-prem virtual infrastructure, for computing storage, and to apply the hyper-converged infrastructure concept while doing a lot of virtualization features, like HA, high availability, redundancy, and replication. We also do some reports and analyses based on utilization. The product has a lot of features.

Our primary use case for this solution is utilizing it as a unified software. It's unified, easy to use and simplified. It has a lot of functionalities, such as replication and failovers, and we deploy it on-premises.

We use AHV to manage our virtual environment. The AHV is the hypervisor that we use to create virtual machines. AHV has another layer called AOS, which means the Acropolis Operating System from Nutanix. AHV is based on a well-known hypervisor called the KVM hypervisor. KVM hypervisor is an open source hypervisor from Red Hat. Nutanix took KVM and added many features on top of it that weren't available. For example, moving virtual machines from KVM to another KVM wasn't possible without many configurations. We're using the most updated version of AHV. It's deployed on-premises.

To use geo clusters, you must have AHV running at the bottom of Prism Central. That was one application. Clusters must connect to multiple geographic locations. Second, we needed a lightweight system that could integrate with AHV Prism natively. Nutanix It was an out-of-the-box integration with AHV being Nutanix and Prism being Nutanix. We didn't have to do anything special to integrate it with Prism. Third, an application feature was available with AHV that was not available with VMware or other solutions. That feature enabled us to create VM-level recovery and production sites across our spectrum. Fourth, the way AHV and CVM actually work, because if you buy VMware, it must be integrated with vSAN; in this case, CVM was integrated with AHV.

Nutanix AHV is a hypervisor and we are using it to manage multiple nodes. We are using Prism in Nutanix AHV. Nutanix can be helpful if you save files in a file server where the data is identical and spread across multiple server numbers. We can recommend AHV.

We implement the solution overall in an on-premise environment. We primarily use the solution for business continuity plans and disaster recovery plans. We use Nutanix for our infrastructure as a service.

Nutanix AHV is one control plane for the entire infrastructure we operate.

We are a hosting provider that uses Nutanix AHV for our own needs. We have our platform that is using Nutanix and we use it for the needs of our customers in their companies.

The cluster is used for software tests, evaluations, or migration projects driven by Nutanix Calm. We needed a simpler approach with a higher grade of automation for testing purposes. As I already stated in my Nutanix Calm review, Nutanix Calm lets us do this. AHV was used so that we would not have any additional spend on a hypervisor. VM management does not require an additional management server like vCenter. Sizing the solution has always taken into account the need for Nutanix Controller-VMs (CVM) - the main part of AOS - to form the cluster and present storage to the hypervisor.

We are using Nutanix AHV for creating various production virtual machines and providing access to our customers.

Our primary use is as an application server.

We are distributors and to meet with our clients' requirements, it supports many OS systems. It monitors and protects the entire system.

The primary use case is for virtualization.

We use the on-prem deployment model and our primary use case for this solution is for virtualization. We also use it for Calm & Karbon.

We primarily use the solution because of the pricing.

We are a system integration company and we sell hyper-converged infrastructure as the new model data center technology. This is one of the solutions that we provide to our customers. This solution can be deployed on-premises or in a cloud-based environment, but the majority of deployments are on-premises.
