3 The Nutanix Enterprise Cloud

4 Innovation in the Data Center Legacy Compute & Enterprise Cloud HCI & Web- Scale Big Iron Physical (x86) Virtualization Iaas/PaaS Containers / Cloud-Native

5 Evolution of Enterprise Infrastructure 1990s Today App App App App Virtualization Server Server Server Server Scale-Out Scale-Up

6 Complexity at Every Step App Virtualization App BUY Purchase in big increments, incur prediction risk, overprovision Server Server DEPLOY Deployment takes weeks to months -- complex, big footprint MANAGE Multiple management panes, manual operations SCALE Difficult to grow quickly SUPPORT Multi-hop support, lack of end-to-end visibility, firefighting

7 How Should Infrastructure Be Delivered? Agile Provisioning in hours, not days or weeks Simple No specialized skills required to operate Secure Privacy and control without significant overhead Scale-out Predictable capacity growth with consumption-based pricing

8 The Solution: Hyperconverged Infrastructure App App App App Virtualization Virtualization Server Server Integrated, scale-out compute and storage

9 Hyperconvergence: A Simplified IT Stack Virtualization Stack [ESXi, Hyper-V, XenServer, KVM] Qlogic, Emulex HP, Dell, Cisco, Lenovo Cisco, Brocade Virtualization Stack [ESXi, Hyper-V, XenServer] AHV EMC, NetApp, HP, Dell, HDS Cisco, HP, Arista, Brocade Cisco, HP, Arista, Brocade Which Stack Would You Want To Manage?

10 Pioneering the Enterprise Cloud OS Hyperconverged Infrastructure Integrated Compute & VM-centric Backup & DR Services HCI++ Native Virtualization Multi-hypervisor Support Hybrid-cloud Services Machine Intelligence Systems and Operations Management File and Block Enterprise Cloud Container Support Object * Cloud Automation* Application Mobility Integrated Public Cloud Microsegmentation* Application Ecosystem*

11 Nutanix Acropolis Hypervisor

12 Legacy Virtualization Was Designed For A SAN World Virtualized Computing (provisioning, operations, policies, protection) Hypervisor took on data services that belong in storage VM-Aware Data Services LUN Hypervisor Hypervisor Bloat Lock-in Lower Mobility Shelfware

13 Hyperconvergence Solves Half The Problem Legacy Virtualized Computing Hyperconverged Virtualized Computing VM-Aware Data Services VM-Aware Data Services LUN Hypervisor Intelligent VM-Centric Hypervisor

14 Untangling Virtualization and Hyperconverged Virtualized Computing Acropolis Hypervisor Virtualized Computing VM-Aware Data Services Hypervisor Intelligent VM-Centric VM-Centric Simpler Stack

15 Acropolis Virtualization Benefits Simplicity Scalability Security VM-centric policies Single pane of glass Single vendor support High automation VM management scales in step with the cluster Complements pay-as-yougrow economics Security built into SDLC Custom STIG Self-healing with SaltStack First truly distributed virtualization management Built with web-scale technologies Purpose-built for hyperconverged architecture Doesn t replicate 100% of virtualization management capability Included at no additional cost

16 Security-First DeSecurity-First Design Full-Stack Security Development Lifecycle Automated Validation and Self-healing Repeat Assess Measure Update Test Report Security Certifications Ecosystem Firewall Anti-Malware Anti-Virus Encryption Key Management Micro- Segmentation

17 Scale-Out Management Services Same building blocks as the distributed storage fabric. Highly available services Highly durable metadata No single point of bottleneck Scales as you expand Transparently integrated. No external servers or databases to manage and right-size. You shouldn t need to manage your management service anyway!

18 Control Plane of a traditional Hypervisor vs AHV Traditional Hypervisor AHV vcenter AHV ESXi CVM CVM

19 What does it mean: Practical example ESXi 5000 VDI Desktops AHV 5000 VDI Desktops

20 All the Features for Enterprise Applications Automated Resource Scheduling & VM Placement incl. Affinity Performance Hot-Spot Avoidance (aka DRS) VM High Availability CPU/Memory Hot Add (Tech Preview) Online Disk Expansion Live Migration VM-centric storage w/snapshots and Clones Dynamic IP Address Management VM Analytics Host Profiles Virtual Networking 1 click Upgrades Host Maintenance Mode Simplified Scaling (Automatic CPU Compatibility) Image Service Cross-Hypervisor Migration, DR & Backup

21 Radically simple with guaranteed performance Always using the distributed switch Always using host profiles Always using EVC Always using the paravirtual SCSI driver Always using storage snapshots (e.g. VAAI) Always using HA, optionally with guaranteed reservation Always using DRS, optionally with affinity rules because why would you want to go without them? Why would you want to study lots of best practice material. but wait there is a guide, simple and compact:

22 Broad Support for Acropolis Hypervisor Applications and Technology Guest Operating Systems Windows Server Hardware Platforms

23 AHV Certifications for SAP NetWeaver DB2 ASE AHV Certified for NetWeaver

24 Acropolis Configuration Maximums Scalability without hypervisor limitations Maximum vram per VM - 2TB Maximum vcpu s per VM 160 Maximum Cluster Size N/A (Same as Nutanix Cluster Size) Max VM s Per Host / Cluster is limited by physical RAM

25 Lower Total Cost of Ownership 1 IDC Nutanix Business Value Study and Servers Virtualization 85% Faster 98% Fewer Occurrences Deployment of Unplanned Downtime Traditional Infrastructure 60% Cost Reduction Traditional Virtualization 80% Cost Reduction 510% Average 5-Year ROI

26 Data Path Resiliency Per-vdisk storage multipathing. Better load distribution during CVM maintenance windows. Can be used to dynamically eliminate storage hot-spots.

27 Data Path Resiliency Per-vdisk storage multipathing. Better load distribution during CVM maintenance windows. Can be used to dynamically eliminate storage hot-spots.

28 Easy OpenStack integration API Simple and flexible integration Nutanix drivers for: Nova (Compute) Cinder (Block ) Glance (Image Service) Neutron (Network) Scale-out architecture Great for: Existing OpenStack deployments Private clouds Converged management of heterogeneous environments

29 Network Visualization Virtual network Added Network page in Prism Element and Prism Central. Virtual network <-> VLAN mapping Virtual network <-> VM <-> host <-> TOR switch port mapping VLAN, Switch Ports Visualize host bridges and connectivity to uplinks.

32 Traditional Hypervisor AHV 2.0 Data plane of a traditional Hypervisor vs AHV Traditional Hypervisor AHV Next Gen CVM * In Development

33 Result: 2x performance vs AHV v1.0 AHV 1.0 AHV Next Gen 2x Faster Performance with AHV 2.0
