What is your primary use case for Nutanix Cloud Manager?

I use the company solution to manage all Nutanix clusters. We have three clusters, including one for VDI, one for the production server, and another for disaster recovery. The tool helps us manage everything in one view.

I use the solution in my company for all of the created VMs. We have all of our systems in Nutanix. My company migrated from Veeam to VMware and then to Nutanix. In my company, we have Nutanix for all of our servers. My company chose the tool since it is a very simple and good product. When I checked the comparison between VMware and Nutanix, I found the latter to be better, especially since it is very easy to monitor.

We mainly use it for infrastructure as a service. We use it for managing the clusters and hardware and running the VLCM updates. We do not use it to manage files and all the embedded because we have other solutions corporate-wide for it. It is pretty much being used to manage the infrastructure of the clusters and make sure that we have all the licenses applied to all the different clusters around the world. We are multinational. I have clusters right now but not on all 53 plants. We have some Acronis data centers. They are called Co Lo data centers. We have a couple of those data centers with Nutanix in them. We have one in Tokyo, one in Ashburn, and then we have a couple of data centers in Mexico with Nutanix. We also have some in the US, some in Portugal where I am from, Italy, Germany, Asia, China, and Japan. We are around the world, and we use Prism to manage all those data centers.

We use the solution between different customers. Each has their own use case.

We started migrating from VMware to Nutanix four years ago, and we're seeing much better performance.

I am an MSP currently, but ten years ago, I was a customer of the solution. What I love about Nutanix is its one-click upgrade. I know that with the tool, all of our company's infrastructure will have a standard upgrade through the switch. With Nutanix, I have to click and go for the launch option. In my company, people in the operations team gain benefits associated with time and productivity. With the tool, our company can give time to customers so that we can answer or respond to their problems, not just technical problems. Nutanix Cloud Manager (NCM) is an invisible tool for managing an infrastructure, just like any tool we use to manage any environment. It has been helpful in the long run, considering that I always get to direct my company to help other organizations and stay customer-friendly.

I use the solution in my company to manage around 27 clusters. It is all a single pane of glass to manage them and monitor them in a way that is not really associated with cross availability but more in the area of whether there are any impacts, alerts, or any such related stuff.

My client is a French company for train travel. They had several servers. They had about 10,000 servers on the VMware infrastructure. The target of the company was to migrate to the new architecture, Nutanix Hyperconverged, because of the costs of VMware. My principal work was to automate the migration from VMware to Nutanix. We have a private cloud with Azure and AWS. We will also have GCP over time.

It is a part of our automation tool.

Nutanix Cloud Manager offers the flexibility of the cloud, allowing us to easily create and destroy environments for proof-of-concept purposes without impacting any patched applications. This flexibility lets us clone existing Veeam instances for various sectors. After reading and patching the clone, we can either delete it or replace the original instance with the patched and updated clone, effectively running it from the Cloud.

We used Nutanix Cloud Manager (NCM) with our dying legacy infrastructure that was sluggish and no longer compliant. We had a higher demand as our business operation became more fast-paced, so we needed a solution like Nutanix Cloud Manager (NCM) that could address all that, which was reliable with no downtime for upgrades and a single pane of glass for management.

We use Nutanix Cloud Manager for the daily administration of our Nutanix cluster. NCM provides one spot to go to for everything Nutanix related. It gives us a window into the overall health of our platform, allowing us to see everything at a glance. NCM tells us about the number of VMs running and all the other critical metrics you would want to see, such as host and virtual machine performance. It can provide a single-pane-of-glass view into multiple clusters, but we're only managing one.

We have multiple projects and multiple groups of developers that need an isolated space to deploy VMs and do testing against code, so we use the automated deployment of applications and VMs to spin up their unique environments.

We use Nutanix Cloud Manager (NCM) mainly for the centralized management of multiple clusters. We're running two clusters under the solution right now, and we'll be expanding to three probably within the next couple of months.

I work at a distributor. We use it for partner-facing demos, and it has been really great. My mission is to help partners see the light with Nutanix, and that's where I use Nutanix Cloud Manager the most.

We use the solution in our production environment and test environment.

Our first use case is for ransomware. We have two more use cases that we identified. The second one is going to be for DR, and the third one is going to be for capacity. Currently, we do ransomware on-prem. We use a shared cluster in our disaster recovery site. With Nutanix Cloud Manager, we hope to use the NC2 clusters in Azure and move all the ransomware activities from on-prem to the cloud.

We use it to manage all of our Nutanix infrastructure. We have six data centers throughout the world, and we use it to manage all the infrastructure for VMware. We're currently moving to AHV and managing those as well.

We are an education institute, and we use Nutanix Cloud Manager to manage student applications, employee applications, and for other educational purposes.

We use Nutanix Cloud Manager to manage all of our Nutanix infrastructure. We have six data centers throughout the world, and we use it to manage all that infrastructure for VMware. We're currently moving to AHV and are managing those as well.

We are still working on moving workloads from the old environment to Nutanix. We are planning to use Nutanix for our mid-tier. The mid-tier consists of noncore applications like medical services.

I use Nutanix with Citrix. Sometimes, I need to expand the workload.

We have Cloud Manager deployed across multiple departments, and each has an individual cluster. NCM manages all of those clusters from a single bandwidth source. About 60 people at our company use the solution.

We're using Nutanix Beam and Flow. They are the cloud cost governance and cloud security governance products, but they may have different names now. We're a large university. We have hundreds of cloud accounts in all three of the vendors: Microsoft, AWS, and Google. This product allows us to look at all of them with one dashboard and do a lot of pricing and cost work across them with one dashboard for the finance side. For the flow side also, it has a lot of good tools for AWS and GCP but not as many for Azure. As a big university, we use it to protect ourselves and keep ourselves safe while we're using the cloud. We also have this other thing called cloudbank.org. So, we have two different licenses with Nutanix. One for CloudBank, and one for the University of California, San Diego. The CloudBank one is all about researchers from all over the country. We have about 115 different researchers there doing all kinds of things.

We use it for capacity planning and we forecast with it. We use the workload reporting, which includes VM efficiencies, and we're able to provide reports that way on capacity, storage, and Runways.

We use it for our service, running everything through Nutanix.

We have installed a physical Nutanix box and we have created the server on it. Our infra is running on that server. We have Citrix infra, so we configured our Citrix in Nutanix only.

The company went with Nutanix and hyper-converged. Just the sheer number of disparate vendor products and hardware the company had to deal with was a lot. The solution was used for consolidating everything into a much more easily managed payment class. Prism brings it all under one umbrella.

We consider it our "private cloud," and all of our workloads are deployed on it. Through our application, we offer secure cloud storage. Most of our customers are law firms or financial institutions and they really care about the security of their documents and they really care about document workflow. Because of that, we have to abide by government rules and regulations. For example, if you're a German law firm, you don't want to store your documents in Australia, you want to keep them in the European Union. Our product is set up in multiple regions, so we've deployed the solution, on-premises, in each region. We have an instance in the U.S. to service U.S. customers. We have an instance in the United Kingdom to service customers there, and We have one in Germany to take care of the European Union. We also have one in Australia, where we take care of Australia and the Asia Pacific region. In each of those regions, we have data centers that we lease space from. In each region, it's a centralized solution. Our entire application that the end-user interfaces with runs on top of Nutanix.

Whenever we face any challenges related to the movement of virtual machines from one cluster to another, we are using Prism Pro. It makes our life easy because with the help of the Prism Pro, we can manage the movement of virtual machines between clusters. We can validate and do complete health checks of physical hosts and logical hosts, as well as of the complete compute storage and other components. All those are converged and are a part of a single solution. With the help of Prism Pro, we are able to simplify our operations and administrative tasks. It is deployed in an on-premises data center. Both data centers have a couple of pairs of clusters, and the clusters are interconnected, just like the data centers are connected. Both clusters are replicated between themselves to have their data synchronized and updated so that in the event of a failure in one of the data centers, the other data center can take over.

We were on legacy hardware and infrastructure, so it was a hardware refresh for us and also a technology refresh for us. We were able to unify our shifts and servers and storage all in one. In essence, we pretty much just compacted everything into one box, one simple management, like a hybrid converge. We have multiple clusters, and that helped us with our planning and capacity planning as well. We use Nutanix Cloud Manager to manage both Nutanix and VMware infrastructure.
