E89 – The Citrix Session:
Citrix and Nutanix, The next phase in powering secure, hybrid work
Summary
Citrix and Nutanix have enjoyed a long-standing partnership spanning over a decade. From the early days of Nutanix’s pioneering work in the hyperconverged space, it was clear that their approach of consolidation and simplification aligned well to running Citrix VDI environments efficiently and at scale. Numerous customers around the globe trust their mission-critical workloads to Citrix and Nutanix every day — customers like JetBlue Airways, Fairway Independent Mortgage Corporation, educational institutions such as Coleg Gwent, and across other vertical industries including healthcare, legal and more.
Today, Citrix Cloud services on Nutanix unlocks the possibility of true hybrid and multi-cloud use cases. It starts with Citrix Cloud as the management plane for the Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops service, Citrix Gateway service, insights with Citrix Analytics, and other services — all delivered on-demand across the GEOs. Nutanix provides the underlying hosting and orchestration fabrics for the workloads — whether on-premises with AHV or in a public cloud like Azure or AWS. The flexibility to shift workloads among public and private clouds, coupled with linear scalability, gives customers the predictability and confidence they need to succeed in this highly unpredictable economic climate.
