Nutanix has acquired Ryax Technologies, a France-based company specialising in AI-driven compute orchestration and management. The acquisition is intended to strengthen Nutanix’s capabilities for helping enterprises build, run and govern agentic AI applications across hybrid infrastructure.

Nutanix plans to integrate Ryax’s GPU utilisation and intelligent scheduling technology into its Nutanix Kubernetes Platform (NKP) and Nutanix Enterprise AI (NAI) offerings. The financial impact of the acquisition is not material to Nutanix, according to the company.

The deal adds infrastructure optimisation capabilities to Nutanix’s broader AI strategy, addressing the operational challenges enterprises face as AI workloads move from experimentation into production.

Addressing the infrastructure demands of agentic AI

As enterprises expand their use of agentic AI, the infrastructure required to support inference and complex AI workflows is becoming more demanding.

GPU availability, rising compute costs and fragmented infrastructure can make it difficult for organisations to deploy workloads efficiently. Many are distributing their compute environments across private data centres, hyperscalers and specialised cloud providers to access the capacity they need.

Nutanix is positioning Ryax’s technology as a way to simplify this complexity through a more unified hybrid cloud operating model, helping enterprises make better use of available hardware while managing operational…
