Why enterprises choose Nutanix
Track 1 · 12 slides
What Nutanix is and why enterprises choose it, in plain English: AHV, AOS (the Acropolis Operating System), Prism, Flow, Nutanix Kubernetes Platform (NKP), Enterprise AI and Move.
Alice
Meet Alice
Infrastructure complexity, translated into clear decisions. Ask about cost, capacity, and risk in plain language, grounded in your approved workspace data.

Alice explains, Technologent guides, and people decide.
Four outcomes Alice is built around
Alice reads the systems your team already runs and explains what changed, what it touches, and what should happen next. Every answer carries its evidence and its limits.
- Faster Adoption
- Move toward cloud-native operations at your own pace, on open standards, without trading one form of lock-in for another.
- Faster Resolution
- Alice correlates telemetry across compute, storage, network, and Kubernetes, then explains the likely root cause next to the evidence behind it.
- Cost Discipline
- See where hypervisor licensing, renewal penalties, and cloud egress charges add up, so you can plan around them before the next renewal.
- Reclaimed Capacity
- Senior architects and engineers get hours back from repeat investigations, and spend them on the work only they can do.
What an answer looks like
The consequence comes first, and the proof stays attached: what was asked, which environments Alice could use, what it found, what it could not see, and who decides next.
Illustrative example. The cluster name and figures are invented to show the format.
- Asked
- Which cluster runs out of storage first, and what should we do about it?
- Scope
- Workspace: West region. Environments: Prism Central, two production clusters.
- Answer
- Cluster PHX-02 reaches 85% of storage in about six weeks at its current growth. Reclaiming snapshots older than 90 days buys roughly a quarter; adding a node settles it for the year.
- Evidence
- Prism Central storage usage, last 30 days. Snapshot inventory for PHX-02, pulled today.
- Limits
- Growth assumes the last 30 days continue. The next migration wave is not in this data yet.
- Decision
- Nothing has changed. Reclaiming snapshots needs approval from an authorized person and leaves an audit receipt.
People stay in charge
Alice is an advisor, not an actor. Strict operational governance keeps people responsible for every decision that matters.
- Read-only by default
- Alice reads connected infrastructure, clusters, application programming interfaces (APIs), and models without changing them. Reading is the default everywhere.
- People authorize every change
- Deploying, modifying, deleting, or configuring anything needs explicit approval from an authorized person, and each change leaves an audit receipt you can verify.
- Role-based access
- Role-based access control (RBAC) decides which workspaces and environments each person, and Alice on their behalf, can use.
- Guardrails that keep improving
- Technologent reviews and refines Alice's guardrails as the technology, and your environment, change.
- Limits stay visible
- When evidence is missing, out of date, or in conflict, Alice says so plainly instead of filling the gap.
Born on Nutanix AI. Runs behind your firewall.
Alice was born on Nutanix Enterprise AI (NAI) and is architected for private enterprise execution behind your firewall, on the Nutanix Cloud Platform you already run.
Alice on stage at Event 17
The four presentations prepared for Event 17, each with its deck and Alice's approved narration. The stage session runs on a hosted demonstration platform; customer deployments run inside the customer's own environment.

Why Nutanix and Alice work better together, from AHV, the hypervisor included with Nutanix, to Nutanix Move migrations from VMware.
Cloud-native infrastructure and NKP
Track 3 · 8 slides
NKP brings upstream Kubernetes, fleet management across clusters, and GitOps, where the desired state lives in version control.
Enterprise AI, kept private
Track 4 · 8 slides
Private inference on Nutanix Enterprise AI, close to your data, with people keeping the final decision.
Alice explains, Technologent guides, and people decide.
Nutanix provides the platform. Technologent guides the work. Alice makes the evidence useful.
