Workday The world of work is changing faster than ever before. Many enterprise applications can no longer keep pace with changes in the market. Emerging technologies such as machine learning, artificial intelligence, and blockchain are giving birth to new ideas and new ways of doing business. These technologies are also redefining work including how, when, and where people work. Many of the solutions on the market today, while being offered in the cloud, are simply a patchwork of different systems stitched together with integrations and are unable to support the collaborative, streamlined experience today’s organizations need. Modern organizations need systems that are flexible, user-friendly, and innovative and that continuously evolve to keep pace with a changing world. That’s why Workday built the Workday Service — a cloud-native finance, human resources, and planning system that can grow as the customer grows and evolves.

  • Nasdaq Case Study
    Nutanix Enterprise Cloud Nasdaq Selects Nutanix AHV with Platform Speeds Provisioning, Improves Performance, and Built-in Virtualization for Rapidly Simplifies Management – with a 25% Lower TCO Growing Splunk Environment CHALLENGES Jake Yang is the senior director of global systems and storage at Nasdaq. He and his team of 35 IT professionals are responsible for managing Nasdaq’s Linux, UNIX, and Windows OS platforms, and all of its storage infrastructure. Nasdaq had been relying on a typical multi-tier server and storage platform, with a large number of Dell servers and several proprietary systems. The environ- ment had been virtualized using a mix of VMware vSphere, Microsoft Hyper-V, and the KVM open source hypervisor. A combi-nation of Fibre Channel and dedicated Ethernet networks was used for all tier-1 and tier-2 storage, with network-attached storage for various other workloads. “Our IT challenges have always centered on agility, performance, and cost,” reported Yang. “We needed the ability to scale service to our internal customers in a more efcient and faster manner. With our traditional SAN environment, provisioning storage was a multi-step process. There were a lot of background tasks that had to be completed, including carving out LUNs, configuring the storage network fabric, and setting up I/O multipathing.” Most of the steps were transparent to Nasdaq’s end-user teams—they just knew that it took a very long time for the storage to be provisioned. Deploying a new storage controller into the datacenter was usually a multi-week efort, and that didn’t even include the time it took for Nasdaq’s internal procurement processes.

  • Amazon AWS, Google Cloud, Microsoft Azure and … Now Nutanix Xi Cloud Services?!
    Amazon AWS, Google Cloud, Microsoft Azure and … now Nutanix Xi Cloud Services?! Amazon, Google, and Microsoft have staked their claims as the Big 3 as providers of enterprise cloud services with their respective AWS, Cloud, and Azure offerings. Enter Nutanix. It has from Day 1 sought to emulate AWS with its on-premise cloud offering. But with the announcements made at its.NEXT conference last week in New Orleans, companies can look for Nutanix to deliver cloud services both on- and off-premise that should fundamentally change how enterprises view Nutanix going forward. There is a little dispute that Amazon AWS is the unquestioned leader in cloud services with Microsoft, Google, and IBM possessing viable offerings in this space. Yet where each of these providers still tend to fall short is in addressing enterprise needs to help them maintain a hybrid cloud environment for the foreseeable future. Clearly most enterprises want to incorporate public cloud offerings into their overall corporate data center design and, by Nutanix’s own admission, the adoption of the public cloud is only beginning in North America. But already there is evidence from early adopters of the cloud that the costs associated with maintaining all their applications with public cloud providers outweighs the benefits. However, these same enterprises are hesitant to bring these applications back on- premise because they like, and I daresay have even become addicted, to the ease of managing applications and data that the cloud provides them. This is where Nutanix at its recent .NEXT conference made a strong case for becoming the next cloud solution on which enterprises should place their bets.
