Nutanix , a leader in enterprise cloud computing, has announced that Treatt, an ingredients manufacturer and solutions provider, is implementing Nutanix as part of a digital transformation to ensure business continuity and to simplify IT management. Before implementing Nutanix, Treatt had a traditional three-tier infrastructure consisting of servers, networking and storage. Maintaining this environment was both costly and labor-intensive which delayed processes and updates.

Productivity suffered while the IT team had to wait for queries and simple processes to be completed. They needed a solution that would simplify IT management, increase the efficiency of their team, and help it to secure the company’s digital future. “Treatt handles flavor, and we knew the sooner we could get back to that, the better it would be for our company. Nutanix created its hyperconvergence products with a clear intent of being minimally invasive at every stage,” said Brent Gay, Network Engineer at Treatt.

With Nutanix Move, Treatt was able to seamlessly migrate from their previous provider to AHV, the natively integrated virtualization solution. The Treatt IT team feared the painful process of implementing a new large-scale infrastructure, but with Nutanix they did not experience any of this.

It felt like closing my eyes in fear as the doctor prepares a shot, only to realize that the process is already over.” With Nutanix Move, Treatt was able to seamlessly migrate from their previous provider to AHV, the natively integrated virtualization solution. The Treatt IT team feared the painful process of implementing a new large-scale infrastructure, but with Nutanix they did not experience any of this. The IT team has streamlined system management using one simple user-interface, freeing up time to focus on other important and strategic projects.

The IT team is now able to offer innovative solutions to other areas of the company, such as end-user machine deployment, thanks to a more agile infrastructure. Instead of always putting out fires, the team is able to proactively deliver value to the company. Before Nutanix, Treatt was also lacking a disaster recovery (DR) solution despite being based in central Florida, a region prone to inclement weather and hurricanes. To address this issue, Treatt decided to implement Nutanix Xi Leap, its cloud-based Disaster Recovery solution. Nutanix enabled Treatt to set up three redundant DR systems in different locations within their facility.

However, if the entire facility were to go down, Xi Leap will seamlessly take over to ensure business continuity until primary systems are restored. “Whether the failover was planned or unplanned, the end users would not notice much change. That is, in effect, the power and necessity of a strong business continuity solution,” said John Bertero, VP, USA Commercial Sales. “With Xi Leap, customers can feel at ease knowing they can continue to operate through a variety of disasters and communicate this safety to its clients, giving them peace of mind as well.” Treatt’s UK division is currently migrating to Nutanix to provide the IT team with more memory and storage capacity for their heavier workloads and is also looking to bring Nutanix to their operations in China.

Nutanix is a global leader in cloud software and a pioneer in hyperconverged infrastructure solutions, making computing invisible anywhere. Organizations around the world use Nutanix software to leverage a single platform to manage any app at any location at any scale for their private, hybrid and multi-cloud environments.

GRC’s new survey seeks end-user feedback on data center sustainability

GRC | December 28, 2022

Green Revolution Cooling (GRC), the leader in immersion cooling for data centres, announced today the launch of its first annual Data Center Sustainability Survey, which will gather feedback from industry professionals on what is working and where there is need for improvement. Participants in the survey will be asked eight short questions about their approach to sustainability and how their organization is working to reduce its carbon footprint. GRC is also interested in gathering stories about sustainability efforts in these mission-critical facilities; the successes, setbacks, and anything else related to data center sustainability. Some of these stories will be featured in GRC's webinar on February 15th at 11:00 a.m. ET. Participants whose stories are selected will receive a $100 Amazon gift card or a donation made to the Rainforest Alliance in their name.

Zenoss Launches Real-Time Kubernetes Monitoring

Zenoss | March 20, 2023

Zenoss Inc., the leader in AI-driven full-stack monitoring, today announced it has released streaming data monitoring for Kubernetes, the most widely deployed open-source orchestration platform used to manage containerized applications. This real-time monitoring of Kubernetes streaming data is part of a broader set of initiatives focused on cloud-based monitoring, which enables visibility for ephemeral systems that cannot be effectively monitored by traditional monitoring tools. Kubernetes was designed by Google in 2014 and donated to the Cloud Native Computing Foundation in 2015. It has become the de facto standard for running containers in production at scale, including in cloud environments such as AWS, Azure and Google Cloud. Also known as K8s, Kubernetes is supported by a community of professional programmers and coders from around the world. There have been over 2.8 million contributions to Kubernetes made by companies. Along with containers, Kubernetes has emerged as a primary technology for modern cloud-native workloads. According to the Cloud Native Computing Foundation, organizations using or evaluating Kubernetes increased from 78% in 2019 to 96% in 2022. Zenoss initially released monitoring and analytics for Kubernetes in 2018 and has delivered continuous innovation to become a leading monitoring platform for container-based environments. Zenoss provides full-stack monitoring and AIOps for public and private clouds, as well as for all on-prem IT infrastructure. The platform provides a view of containerized applications in the context of the broader infrastructure. This provides a common view for IT Operations, DevOps, DevSecOps, and business-level users. In addition to previously existing capabilities, Zenoss monitoring for Kubernetes now provides: Monitoring insights for Kubernetes clusters in a single pane of glass along with the broader infrastructure for K8s deployments in AWS, Azure and Google Cloud, as well as in private or hybrid clouds and locally hosted environments Secure, cloud-based monitoring with zero install Data collection and analytics in under five minutes Visibility into the health and performance of nodes, services, pods, containers, namespaces and more Intelligent dashboards with out-of-box templates Smart View, actions and notifications "There is a significant shortage of visibility into health and performance in these highly complex container orchestration environments," said Trent Fitz, chief product officer for Zenoss. “Just as application developers have adapted to be more efficient, scalable and automated, we are doing the same for monitoring these environments.” Zenoss Cloud is the leading AI-driven full-stack monitoring platform that streams all machine data, uniquely enabling the emergence of context for preventing service disruptions in complex, modern IT environments, including those built on Kubernetes. Zenoss Cloud leverages the most powerful machine learning and real-time analytics to give companies the ability to scale and adapt to the changing needs of their businesses. About Zenoss Zenoss works with the world's largest organizations to ensure their IT services and applications are always on. Delivering full-stack monitoring combined with AIOps, Zenoss uniquely collects all types of machine data, including metrics, dependency data, events, streaming data and logs, to build real-time IT service models that train machine learning algorithms to deliver robust AIOps analytics capabilities. This enables IT Ops and DevOps teams to optimize application performance, predict and eliminate outages, and reduce IT spend in modern hybrid IT environments. Zenoss is recognized in The Forrester Wave™: Intelligent AIOps Platforms, Q4 2022, the 2022 Gartner Market Guide for AIOps Platforms, and in the 2022 Gartner Market Guide for IT Infrastructure Monitoring Tools.
