Nutanix is a leading vendor in the Hyperconverged Infrastructure (HCI) space. This course will provide you with an overview of its architecture, features, and additional capabilities beyond HCI.
Over the last few years, Hyperconverged Infrastructure (HCI) solutions have gone from being a niche concept to a focus area for many infrastructure vendors. Nutanix is a pioneering vendor in this space, but how does it work, what is different about its architecture, and why should you care? In this course, Nutanix: The Big Picture, you’ll learn the challenges that Nutanix was created to solve before. First, you'll delve into how Nutanix implements its version of HCI. Next, you’ll explore how easy it is to operate and how Nutanix is much more than an HCI platform. Finally, you’ll discover the Nutanix AHV hypervisor and understand what the potential benefits are, as well as some things you need to consider. When you’re finished with this course, you’ll not only understand how Nutanix works and what’s unique about it, you'll also know if it’s the right choice for you or your organization.
