VMware Alternatives
Take control of your virtualisation future. Assess and test drive available alternatives, select the right hypervisor, and build a clear, low-risk roadmap away from VMware.
Organisations are re-evaluating infrastructure platforms.
Infrastructure decisions increasingly extend beyond selecting a hypervisor. Licensing changes, operational requirements, cloud integration, application modernisation and evolving business needs are causing organisations to reassess their infrastructure platforms.
Private cloud, hybrid cloud and public cloud technologies now provide organisations with more options than ever before when planning future infrastructure environments.
As technology leaders balance performance, resilience, operational efficiency, flexibility and long-term investment decisions, understanding the strengths and trade-offs of each approach becomes increasingly important.
Infrastructure Evaluation Framework
Selecting an infrastructure platform requires balancing application requirements, operational models, cloud strategy and infrastructure architecture. Use the framework below to identify the platforms best aligned to your organisation’s technical, operational and commercial requirements.
Nutanix
Nutanix is a hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI) platform that combines compute, storage, and networking into a single software-defined stack.
It’s typically deployed on standard x86 servers and managed through a single interface (Prism). Nutanix includes its own native hypervisor, AHV, alongside enterprise storage, management, and automation features.
Nutanix works best in environments that prioritise simplified operations, predictable costs, and core virtualisation capabilities, as its AHV hypervisor and integrated HCI stack cover most enterprise needs without separate licensing.
