Use Cases
On-demand Elasticity
Rapidly scale capacity for your workloads by utilizing public cloud burstability. Avoid the often extensive delays in procuring additional capacity for your datacenter by bursting into public cloud while maintaining centralized control with a unified infrastructure management console. Improve developer productivity by setting up a composable environment for dev/test workloads.
Lift and Shift
Speed up your digital initiatives with easy lift-and-shift across private and multiple public clouds. Save the trouble of tedious retooling or refactoring by easily migrating any application or workload with absolutely no code changes needed. Your VMs, files, data, and more, can be moved across clouds without any changes giving you the flexibility to run applications in the cloud of your choice.
Business Continuity
Use a public cloud region as a secondary backup site and replicate your on-premises entities that need to be protected through our unified management plane. Use existing tools available within the Nutanix stack without adding more complexity arising from stand-alone DR solutions. Create high availability policies for on-premises data and applications by using public cloud to provide additional resources.
Cloud-native Integration
Use cloud-native services (like AI/ML, CDNs and advanced analytics) to modernize your on-premises applications without expensive re-architecting to make the app cloud-native. The on-prem applications reside in the same VPC and subnet as cloud-native services without needing any inefficient network overlays. This results in near cloud-native performance with no network overheads.
What Our Customers Are Saying
“NC2 allows us to easily create a hybrid cloud environment spanning our Nutanix datacenter and AWS, so that we can very rapidly burst capacity in AWS when needed to quickly restore our workloads from a backup.”
- Craig Wiley, Sr Infrastructure Systems Architect, Penn National Insurance
“We are excited about what the partnership between Nutanix and Microsoft will bring, with Nutanix Cloud Clusters on Azure (NC2Z) and beyond. I envision this hybrid cloud solution will accelerate our teams' ability to try new innovative ideas and bring them to our customers, by increasing agility, scalability and reliability while reducing risk.”
- Ken Shaffer, AVP Technology, CarMax
“NC2 provides a seamless way to burst capacity into public clouds to increase our VDI workloads when needed to support Census activities, while knowing all our apps will just work – without needing to repackage or rearchitect them.”
