  The Opportunity

  At Nutanix, we are trying to build the next generation platform to help enterprises model and develop applications; encapsulate the application architecture and deployment as code. Our goal is to provide application lifecycle operations such as build, deploy, start, stop, upgrade and retire, “out of the box”. We want enterprises to be able to manage and move their application workloads, across and between bare metal, VMs on premise or cloud or containers. Nutanix has disrupted the multi-billion dollar virtualization market by pioneering the first converged compute & storage virtualization appliance that can incrementally scale out to manage petabytes of data while running tens of thousands of virtual machines. We strive to bring simplicity in data center management and constantly challenge ourselves to make complex systems simple.

  Engineering / R&D at Nutanix:

  Nutanix Files is a software-defined, scale-out file storage solution that provides a repository for unstructured data, such as home directories, user profiles, departmental shares, application logs, backups, and archives. Flexible and responsive to workload requirements, Files is a fully integrated core component of Nutanix.
