Ericsson and Nutanix

Take full control of your public, private and hybrid cloud


How Nutanix can help you meet your goals

Singular visions demand sole control. To realise a limitlessly connected world, Ericsson can’t rely on partners who may reduce or discontinue essential services at any time. To build a sustainable future – one that balances net zero emissions with operational agility – you need a stable foundation. It means having full control of your public, private and hybrid cloud strategy, its costs and its place in the partner ecosystem.

In an unpredictable landscape, Nutanix is helping organisations like Ericsson migrate to firmer footing. Discover how, our robust hyperconverged platform can be the foundation for an Ericsson Super Cloud.

Why Nutanix for Ericsson

We’d like to help Ericsson realise your vision for a world of limitless connectivity – starting with freeing your public, private and hybrid cloud strategy. Here’s how Nutanix can act as a trusted advisor and partner to each of your key stakeholders.

Intelligence for Ericsson IT leaders

You can see the insights spread across your public, private and hybrid cloud environments. All that’s missing is a path between them. Your existing IT consumption model might be making it too expensive to scale. Increased complexity would put your security at risk.

But with Nutanix, Ericsson IT leaders can easily and cost-effectively bridge the gaps between sources of intelligence, including AI, all over the business with our OPEX service models and zero trust security. So, you can connect the insights and regain the control you need to make the unimaginable possible – redefining customer experience, improving business processes to be more profitable and keeping the pace on sustainability efforts.

Freedom for Ericsson IT managers

Much of your team’s time is spent keeping the IT running, scaled and secured. But with so many technologies, admin tools and vendors involved – some of whom may be experiencing uncertainties of their own – it’s a task fraught with complexity and risk.

Allow Nutanix to free up time to get back in the driver’s seat, focus more on growth and get closer to your vision for limitless connectivity. All without getting locked in to legacy infrastructure. With our vast ecosystem – including alliances with partners like Red Hat – Ericsson managers can work with the tools of their choice, including emerging technologies and resources. It all means you can deliver the services and experiences customers are calling for, as well as incentives to attract and retain employees.

Inspiration for Ericsson IT administrators

You’re not the only one who sees more promise in operating an on-premises cloud-like experience. In fact, Ericsson is already using a cloud native infrastructure and is working to validate its cloud native functions. Yet it’s you who is in the best position to make the organisation’s public, private and hybrid cloud ambitions a reality – with significant investment into next-generation networking, core technologies, AI and more.

With Nutanix, Ericsson IT administrators can unlock all that potential – of their technology, their role and beyond. An intuitive interface relieves the burden of administration by providing a single pane of glass, while automation frees experts from routine or time-consuming tasks – allowing tech specialists to dedicate more skill and energy to activities that will get Ericsson closer to delivering a limitlessly connected world.

How Nutanix can help Ericsson create a Super Cloud

Nutanix Cloud Infrastructure

Nutanix Cloud Platform is the foundation for your Super Cloud leveraging hyperconverged infrastructure to enable endless success with an agile, cost-efficient and incredibly powerful private super cloud-like environment – and get everything you need to grow.

  • Get the freedom and availability to adapt and scale your business seamlessly to new demands.
  • Easily move applications and services, add new clusters while improving your operational efficiency to grow as you go.
  • Take complete control of your architecture with self-service access for admins and standardise operations to free up staff time from admin tasks.
  • Reduce cloud costs and raise ROI by shifting workloads to one private, hyperconverged cloud platform on an OPEX model.
  • Stay protected with built-in security capabilities like application-centric security policy, network security, self-healing mechanism and data protection and encryption.
  • Improve energy efficiency with lower hardware footprint  and reduce energy bills with a software-defined architecture that merges compute and storage using common server nodes. Fewer components leads to easier hosting which can help meet not only performance and governance needs but energy and carbon targets, too. This on top of the reduced total cost of ownership.
