Discover the advantages of using the Nutanix Enterprise Cloud to seamlessly scale and deliver consistent, robust performance for VMware Horizon 8 with this validated reference architecture.
Whether you are planning to deploy virtual desktops or virtualize your end-user applications, Nutanix gives you the ideal platform to succeed. The Nutanix Enterprise Cloud running VMware Horizon View can be up and serving desktops in a fraction of the time it takes with traditional SANs. Start small with initial deployments for one hundred end users or less, and linearly scale to tens of thousands of users without any upfront costs, additional performance overhead, or complex management.

Achieve predictable VDI scaling, paying only as you grow, and moving from pilot to production without re-architecting storage.
Minimize Boot Storm Impact
Boot as many as 800 desktops in six minutes using Nutanix Shadow Clone, the ideal complement to VMware Linked Clones.
Eliminate Sizing Risk
Define VDI in terms of end-user requirements and eliminate performance risk.
Deliver Business Continuity

Lower Costs
Lower CapEx by up to 50% versus 3-tier infrastructure and reduce OpEx with VM-centric management and automation, and VCAI integration.
