Due to the growing complexity of multicloud, IT organizations continue to confront substantial operational challenges as well as pressing sustainability and security issues. Through best-in-class cloud operating models, unmatched flexibility, automated resiliency, and sector-leading customer support, this new cooperation addresses these difficulties by streamlining and speeding the supply of infrastructure and applications on a global scale.

"Customers are asking for solutions that are simple, sustainable, and future-ready," said Cisco Compute senior vice president and general manager Jeremy Foster.

"This partnership answers with a complete solution spanning virtual compute, networking and storage across customer data centres and public clouds. By combining Cisco's award-winning SaaS-managed compute portfolio with Nutanix's market-proven cloud platform software, we can help customers develop a balanced approach to power modern workloads on-prem and in the cloud."

"As organisations look to keep up with the pace of innovation, they need an integrated hardware and software platform to support application deployment anywhere," said Nutanix chief commercial officer Tarkan Maner. "This partnership will deliver an expanded market opportunity for both organisations as they tackle the challenges of standardising, simplifying, and securing environments across the data centre, in public cloud and the edge."

The new service combines the Nutanix Cloud Platform's components—Nutanix Cloud Infrastructure, Nutanix Cloud Manager, Nutanix Unified Storage, and Nutanix Desktop Services—with Cisco's SaaS-managed compute and networking infrastructure (Cisco Unified Computing System with Cisco Intersight). Cisco will market the new service using its extensive go-to-market capabilities.

A completely integrated and verified solution that is offered, created, maintained, and supported holistically for an effortless end-to-end experience would benefit customers.
