Nutanix and Dell Technologies have announced a strategic collaboration to help accelerate digital transformation for customers through infrastructure modernization and modern application development. This partnership will allow joint customers to utilize hybrid multi-cloud solutions from Dell and Nutanix, enhancing IT operations, resilience, and flexibility.
The collaboration aims to optimize multi-private and hybrid cloud deployments by combining Dell’s server and storage solutions with Nutanix software, promising to simplify operations and improve business flexibility. As part of the agreement, Dell will offer an integrated hyperconverged appliance that combines the Nutanix Cloud platform with Dell servers, available in various PowerEdge server models and configurations to meet different application requirements.
Nutanix Cloud Platform for Dell PowerFlex will integrate Nutanix Cloud Platform with Dell PowerFlex for storage, allowing enterprise customers to independently scale compute and storage while extending Dell’s scalable storage capabilities to Nutanix software. The collaboration will also involve joint engineering, marketing strategies, support, and services, expanding Dell customers’ access to the Nutanix Cloud Platform with support from Dell sales teams and partners worldwide.
Tarkan Maner, chief commercial officer at Nutanix, highlighted that the collaboration with Dell will provide a unified platform for companies to manage a growing number of applications in diverse environments, offering greater flexibility, simplified operations, and enhanced resilience for joint customers.

The joint solutions from Dell and Nutanix are currently in development and will be available for early access to customers later this year. This collaboration between two industry leaders in infrastructure modernization and cloud solutions aims to empower organizations to accelerate their digital transformation journey and achieve greater agility, resilience, and efficiency in their IT operations.
