Johannesburg, 17 Sept 2025
Nutanix (NASDAQ: NTNX), which positions itself as a leader in hybrid multicloud computing, has announced it has been recognised as a leader in the 2025 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Distributed Hybrid Infrastructure. The recognition marks Nutanix’s third time in this Magic Quadrant and its second time as a leader.
Lee Caswell, SVP, Product & Solutions Marketing at Nutanix, said: “We feel our positioning on both vision and execution in this year’s Gartner Magic Quadrant for Distributed Hybrid Infrastructure is a direct reflection of our relentless focus on innovation and customer success.”
The Nutanix Cloud Platform (NCP) solution enables organisations to run applications and manage data anywhere, including through an expanded public cloud presence supporting Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure and, most recently, the public preview of Google Cloud. It also supports external storage and Kubernetes and enables customers to deploy AI.
Organisations worldwide, including across the financial services, healthcare, public, manufacturing and retail sectors, are using NCP.
California-based First Foundation Bank is an NCP customer and uses the platform to enable a hybrid environment for disaster recovery of its virtual desktop infrastructure. Adrian S Darmawan, EVP and CTO at the bank said: “The most valued feature of NCP is its scalability. If there is a disaster, more machines can be spun up quickly.
“With NCP, our capex is also lower since it is elastic, and we can turn on our disaster recovery solution during tests or when it is actually needed. We also benefit from licence portability because no matter where our machines or servers are located, we are able to license the compute and storage.”
