Nutanix, a hybrid multicloud computing company, has reaffirmed its commitment to assisting public sector organizations in Saudi Arabia in embracing the power of hybrid multicloud as part of their digital transformation initiatives. The company is developing and empowering its channel ecosystem to help government agencies navigate the complexities of cloud adoption and deliver the applications, networks, cloud services, storage solutions, and other IT components they require.
Saeed Nader, Channel Sales Manager – Saudi Arabia Public Sector at Nutanix says, “Nutanix as a company very much supports Vision 2030 that promotes digital transformation in the Kingdom. In the age of the hybrid workplace, cloud computing is a key pillar of any digital transformation strategy.
As per the Saudi findings of the fourth Nutanix Enterprise Cloud Index, 81% of respondents in Saudi Arabia agreed that multicloud was the ideal IT operating model as it enables them to strike a balance between cost, complexity, speed, and scale of operations and generate more revenue. However, far fewer reported having deployed it as they face inter-cloud security, mobility, management, and skillset challenges as they embark on infrastructure change. This is true for both, the public as well as the private sector.”
“As part of our efforts to support public sector organizations as they transition from legacy infrastructures to hybrid multicloud architectures, one of our key objectives is to create self-sufficiency and ‘channel autonomy’. Through this, our partners that are focused on the public sector, act as a true extension of our company, and are able to deliver our market leading cloud solutions independently, with minimal involvement from our team. We believe that our channel ecosystem will play a pivotal role in the digital transformation of the public sector in the Kingdom in the years to come,” he says.
Nutanix’s technologies enable channel autonomy by removing all complexities and making it simple to design, rightsize, implement, configure, and upgrade solutions. As a result, a number of large Saudi channel organizations, primarily focused on the public sector, have formed specialist teams that are trained and certified on Nutanix technologies and are investing in developing their capabilities in order to become self-sufficient.
Nutanix Enterprise Cloud Platform is the industry’s leading hyperconverged infrastructure solution, natively combining compute, virtualization, and storage into a resilient, software-defined solution with deep machine intelligence. With a simple scale-out architecture, Nutanix delivers cost savings and predictable scalability for even the most intensive workloads.
The advanced architecture of the Nutanix platform enables high availability across all system components to an unlimited number of concurrent users. The modular building-block design of Nutanix Enterprise Cloud Platform enables government agencies to begin with small deployments and gradually scale up to very large installations. Nutanix lowers the costs of business disruption. Non-disruptive upgrades and all-inclusive software eliminate numerous points of failure, reducing the need for maintenance and the likelihood of outages.
Nutanix Prism is the ideal end-to-end consumer-grade management solution for the public sector, combining several aspects of administration and reporting to provide unprecedented simplicity. Prism can mine large volumes of system data using advanced machine learning technology to automate common tasks and generate actionable insights for optimizing virtualization, infrastructure management, and day-to-day operations.
Speaking about the benefits of Nutanix, Saeed explains, “Government agencies must maintain a delicate balance between budget restrictions and the growing demands for IT services. As a result, IT teams in the public sector are tasked with making difficult decisions to demonstrate financial responsibility, while delivering all of the services the public needs. To accomplish their goals, government agencies need powerful, cost-effective IT solutions, and the flexibility to easily and effectively scale their environments.”
“Nutanix provides predictable economics and scalability benefits of web-scale IT to help public sector agencies deliver better services with their current budgets and IT teams. We have helped hundreds of government departments and agencies globally make the transition to an efficient and virtualized datacenter built on web-scale hyperconverged infrastructure,” he concludes.
