Powered by Nutanix: Solutions for the Service Provider

Service Providers (SP)  are redefining their role in the modern cloud ecosystem, moving beyond simple infrastructure hosting to delivering differentiated, outcome-based services. At Nutanix, we’re excited to introduce “Powered by Nutanix,” a framework to help our SPs implement their differentiated and profitable services powered by Nutanix products and technologies. 

More than a technology label, Powered by Nutanix represents our commitment to help Service Providers design, build, and scale enterprise-ready solutions using proven Nutanix architectures, validated designs, and best practices. It establishes a foundation of reliability and consistency that benefits both the Service Provider and their end customers.

This follows my earlier blog on Sovereign Cloud for Service Providers, where we explored how national and regional clouds are shaping the next generation of infrastructure strategies.  Another recurring theme in conversations we’ve had with service providers over the years is a desire for partnership and business-saavy advice on how to build services like private cloud or DR as a service.  Additionally, service providers who commit to building out a service appreciate a vendor who will collaboratively verify their solution and then provide them with GTM support.  To that end, Nutanix is excited to introduce the Powered by Nutanix program.  It builds on that foundation—helping Service Providers take the next step by developing verified, repeatable solutions that align with their business objectives and the sovereignty and data control principles that guide their operations.

Accelerating Time to Solution

Every Service Provider faces the same challenge: balancing innovation and stability while maintaining customer trust. Powered by Nutanix addresses this by providing reference designs, validated architectures, and implementation best practices that accelerate time to market while delivering predictable performance. These proven design blueprints allow Service Providers to focus on differentiation and customer value — not infrastructure complexity.

Introducing Powered by Nutanix: Verified Solutions

As part of the Powered by Nutanix initiative, we are introducing the Powered by Nutanix: Verified Solutions program. This program gives Service Providers a way to demonstrate differentiated solutions that are aligned with Nutanix reference designs and best practices. In turn, it provides end customers with confidence that the underlying platform was built to deliver reliability, scalability, and operational simplicity.

Verified Solutions represent the alignment between Nutanix and our Service Provider partners. Each Verified Solution has been reviewed in collaboration with Nutanix to confirm that it follows our technical guidance and configuration standards. While the program does not imply any warranty or guarantee, it signals a shared commitment to delivering high-quality, repeatable cloud solutions.

Launching with Private Cloud – IaaS and DRaaS

The Powered by Nutanix: Verified Solutions program will launch with two foundational offerings: IaaS and DRaaS. These are among the most widely deployed use cases across the Nutanix Service Provider community and in the managed and cloud service provider market, serving as the cornerstone for broader service portfolios. Future phases will extend the Verified Solutions family to include Data Platform, Cloud-Native (NKP), AI, and other solution categories.

Building Differentiated Services, Powered by Nutanix

Several leading Service Providers are already demonstrating the impact of building solutions Powered by Nutanix:

• Expedient delivers multi-region IaaS and DRaaS offerings, using Nutanix to provide consistent performance and operational control across its data centers.
• Think Solutions leverages Nutanix to deliver enterprise-grade DRaaS with simplified management and high resiliency.
• US Signal combines IaaS and DRaaS into a unified, multi-cloud platform that provides scalability, flexibility, and predictable economics.

Each of these examples reflects a shared pattern — Service Providers are using Nutanix to modernize infrastructure, automate operations, and deliver repeatable, scalable services that exceed enterprise expectations.

Partnering for What’s Next

Having spent much of my career leading cloud product management at one of the world’s largest Service Providers, I understand both the challenges and the opportunities facing SPs today. The path to differentiation lies in choosing technology partners who not only provide software or hardware but also bring shared expertise and a collaborative approach to building new value.

Powered by Nutanix is our way of formalizing that partnership. By combining Nutanix’s proven software platform with our partners’ innovation, we’re enabling a new generation of cloud services — designed, verified, and delivered with confidence.
