“Nutanix is leading a massive transformation of enterprise IT architectures and bringing the balance back between private and public clouds,” said Dheeraj Pandey, co-founder and CEO. “The results of the past 6 months have exceeded our own expectations as market demand continues to grow, while the entire Nutanix ecosystem is executing our mission to propagate the value of web-scale engineering and consumer-grade design to enterprises around the world.”

By providing better efficiency, performance and manageability than traditional datacenter solutions, Nutanix helps transform IT into a competitive advantage.

“Many of our customers are now standardizing all of their virtualized applications on Nutanix,” said Sudheesh Nair, senior vice president of sales and business development. “Our largest deals the past two quarters were from Global 2000 organizations to run their business critical applications such as databases, Oracle and SAP, Microsoft Exchange, unified communications, and line-of-business applications.”

Today’s announcement extends a streak of impressive growth and third-party validation for Nutanix.
