OEM partnership aids customer missions by fostering efficient, economical platforms

[Nabanita1]

It’s been more than two years since HPE and Nutanix recognized the value that partnership could bring to the marketplace. With so many organizations across industries relying on both Nutanix software and HPE hardware, there was an opportunity to deliver a joint solution for customers. Leveraging the strengths and expertise of Nutanix and HPE greatly accelerates customer outcomes. The partners have developed solutions that are already optimized for different workloads, such as virtual desktop infrastructure, private cloud, and database management. These workloads run on-premises—at the edge, in the data center, or in a co-location—further enhancing customer agility. Furthermore, HPE GreenLake cloud services can also eliminate the expense of overprovisioned infrastructure through a pay-per-use consumption model. Customers pay for what they use with the added benefit of easily scaling services up or down at any time to match their business needs.

According to Jeff Echols, VP OEM Sales, Nutanix, “We continue to see tremendous success in the evolution and expansion of our strategic partnership, as well as more opportunity to strengthen our joint offerings to further serve customers. HPE and Nutanix deliver robust, integrated solutions with the performance, control, and security needed to help customers on their journey to the cloud—whether as an appliance form factor for private cloud or on HPE GreenLake cloud services”.

Five years ago, Nutanix engineers began porting their software onto HPE ProLiant DL servers to enable integrated hybrid cloud solutions. Fast forward to today, the joint solutions combine compute, storage, and networking proficiencies through one management tool, with simplified infrastructure management and deployment of applications and databases in minutes. Nutanix and HPE share access to a wide range of resources. This includes early access to updates and management capabilities, which enable both companies to refine lifecycle management tasks, lower the total cost of ownership, and go to market faster globally.

Nutanix and HPE work closely to select and certify the product offering for our customers. The alliance provides Nutanix access to a wide variety of HPE ProLiant DX platforms. To enable an elevated customer experience, the two companies have a cooperative support model. HPE delivers support for hardware and Nutanix provides support for software, while joint service resources collaborate to resolve any solution-level issues quickly.

Nutanix and HPE combine global reach and support capabilities, which enhances business outcomes for customers. The joint solution is available in 75 countries. “With HPE’s global distribution capabilities, customers can centrally place an order in the United States and have the products shipped in another country. That’s an incredible benefit for our customers,” Ellis acknowledges.
