Nutanix and Pure Storage have announced a strategic partnership to deliver a new integrated solution designed to meet the growing demands of mission-critical workloads. The solution brings together Nutanix’s Cloud Infrastructure platform and Pure Storage’s FlashArray, offering customers a scalable, secure, and high-performance virtual infrastructure. Announced at a time when organizations are reassessing their virtualization strategies, this collaboration aims to help businesses transition smoothly to modern IT environments amid evolving market dynamics.
The joint solution leverages Nutanix’s AHV hypervisor and Flow for virtual networking and security, paired with Pure Storage’s all-flash system connected over NVMe/TCP. This setup will offer enterprise customers the performance, flexibility, and efficiency required for data-heavy applications such as AI. Built-in cyber resilience features—like Flow micro-segmentation, disaster recovery, and SafeMode data protection—enhance security and business continuity for sensitive environments.
A key highlight of this partnership is the freedom of choice it brings to customers. By combining the simplicity of Nutanix’s virtual compute stack with the consistent performance of Pure Storage’s infrastructure, organizations gain a reliable and easy-to-manage alternative to existing solutions. The integration is supported by leading server partners including Cisco, Dell, HPE, Lenovo, and Supermicro, ensuring a broad hardware compatibility base for both new and existing deployments.
The upcoming solution, expected to enter early access by mid-2025 and become generally available by year-end, is seen as a significant step in infrastructure modernization. Leaders from Nutanix, Pure Storage, and Cisco emphasize that this partnership not only enhances operational agility but also helps businesses adapt to future demands. With unified visibility, simplified management, and deeper integration, the Nutanix-Pure Storage solution is poised to deliver the flexibility, speed, and resilience modern enterprises need.
