Latin America. Nutanix announced FlexPrice, a new procurement program that helps service providers deliver differentiated and cost-effective services on Nutanix's invisible infrastructure. With FlexPrice, service providers can leverage the performance, scalability, and ease of handling of Nutanix solutions to develop cloud-based and managed services such as infrastructure as a service (IaaS), desktop as a service (DaaS), and disaster recovery.
This innovative pricing program addresses the business and financial challenges faced by many service providers, including high upfront investment costs to build and expand services, data center inefficiency resulting from over-provisioning for IT, and very long procurement cycles that degrade the speed of service delivery.
"In order to triumph over the legion of low-cost cloud providers, we need to deliver greater customer value through differentiated services. This requires an infrastructure that is simple to deploy, easy to manage, and efficient to scale," said Kevin Meany, chief technology officer and co-founder of Versatile. "With Nutanix FlexPrice, we can now focus on our definition and delivery of services, and distance ourselves from cloud providers that sell based strictly on price."
With FlexPrice, service providers can now procure Nutanix-qualified hardware and enable Nutanix Web-scale software on a flexible subscription basis. Nutanix customers can deploy and expand their infrastructure one node at a time with pricing based on 3-, 6-, 12- and 36-month terms, as well as reduce the upfront capital costs of storage, servers, and virtualization. Subscription pricing also aligns data center investments more closely with IT consumption.
