Nutanix, Inc. announced the Cloud Native AOS solution, which extends Nutanix enterprise storage and advanced data services to hyperscaler Kubernetes®? services and cloud-native bare-metal environments - without requiring a hypervisor. As data becomes more distributed, users are looking for a consistent way to protect, replicate, and restore data across Kubernetes infrastructure in data centers, bare-metal edge locations and cloud-native hyperscalers.
What's been missing is a common data platform that can run across bare-metal, virtualized, and containerized infrastructure. Cloud Native AOS completes this puzzle with storage and data services that can run directly on cloud-native infrastructure anywhere, in the cloud or on bare metal. By eliminating the need for a hypervisor, this new solution allows users to consolidate storage management across the distributed hybrid cloud.
This new solution simplifies day two intelligent operations for Kubernetes applications and their data - anywhere. Cloud Native AOS extends Nutanix's proven and resilient AOS software - the backbone of its platform for data, Platform-as-a-Service, and AI - to stateful, native Kubernetes clusters in the cloud and bare-metal environments. Key benefits include: Ready-to-Use Resilience for Any Application - Cloud Native AOS provides resilience for Kubernetes infrastructure by protecting containerized applications and their data with integrated disaster recovery between availability zones, clouds and on-premises.
Integrated Data Management - The solution empowers developers to use Kubernetes APIs to automate and provide self-service control over all aspects of data management for their applications.
