As the virtualization market undergoes transformation, Nutanix and Pure Storage have partnered on a deeply integrated solution to offer customers greater choice for modern virtualization.
Pure Storage and Nutanix have announced the general availability of a new integrated solution that combines the operational simplicity of Nutanix Cloud Infrastructure with the high-performance architecture of Pure Storage® FlashArray™, delivering improved application responsiveness and greater agility for business-critical workloads.
Customers gain a full-stack virtual infrastructure that is modern, scalable, and designed to support the most mission-critical and data-intensive workloads, including AI.
Commenting on the partnership, Dan Kogan, VP Product Management at Pure Storage, said:
“The virtualization market is shifting fast. Licensing costs are climbing, vendor lock-in is real, and IT leaders are rethinking their entire stack. Nutanix and Pure Storage are stepping in with a fresh alternative—one that’s built for change and tuned for performance. Whether enterprises are dealing with sprawling VMs, managing high-performance databases, or planning their next AI deployment, this partnership is all about freedom, resilience, and future-ready infrastructure. It’s simple to deploy, easy to manage, and available now.”
A Modern Infrastructure Alliance
The Pure Storage platform and the Nutanix Cloud Platform together deliver a powerful, integrated solution for modern enterprise IT. Built for performance, simplicity, and resilience, this joint offering helps organizations streamline operations, strengthen security, and reduce reliance on legacy virtualization.
The Pure Storage platform delivers a unified, cloud-like storage-as-a-service foundation that consolidates block, file, and object storage with centralized management, reducing complexity and accelerating outcomes. Built on Evergreen architecture for non-disruptive upgrades and zero-downtime operations, it future-proofs IT environments while lowering cost, space, and energy consumption.
Pure Storage FlashArray, a core component of the platform, is engineered for high-performance workloads at enterprise scale. Its always-on global compression and deduplication deliver industry-leading data efficiency, often requiring significantly less hardware than alternatives. The modular NVMe architecture enables disaggregated simplicity by separating compute and storage, delivering sub-millisecond latency across workloads.
With full integration into Nutanix Prism, customers benefit from VM-level snapshots and seamless Day 1 and Day 2 operations from a single interface. FlashArray delivers six-nines availability, even during in-place upgrades, and scales using DirectFlash® Modules to multiple petabytes of effective capacity, providing more storage with fewer devices.
Advanced replication capabilities, including asynchronous replication and a roadmap to ActiveDR™ and ActiveCluster™, further strengthen business continuity for Nutanix environments.
Nutanix Cloud Platform simplifies and secures enterprise IT across hybrid environments. Nutanix Prism provides a unified, VM-centric interface that streamlines operations from Day 0 planning through Day 2 execution, offering intelligent automation and integrated monitoring.
Nutanix AHV, the platform’s built-in hypervisor, reduces complexity and cost compared to third-party virtualization while delivering enterprise-grade performance and scalability. Designed around virtual machines, it enables faster provisioning, easier scaling, responsive performance, and built-in resilience for business-critical applications.
Nutanix Flow adds policy-driven microsegmentation and virtual networking, enabling granular control over east-west traffic and helping organizations meet compliance requirements.
Together, Pure Storage and Nutanix deliver a full-stack solution that enables IT teams to modernize infrastructure, reduce dependence on legacy virtualization, and align with evolving business priorities.
“This is the partnership the industry has been waiting for—two companies with an unwavering commitment to performance, availability, and user experience from day one,” said Anthony Jackman, Chief Innovation Officer at Expedient. “This solution allows Expedient to deliver guaranteed outcomes to our clients with maximum flexibility, including the ability to leverage existing investments while modernizing their infrastructure.”
