Nutanix CEO: Hybrid Cloud, Kubernetes Containers are the Future

Hybrid cloud and Kubernetes containers are the path forward, said Nutanix CEO Dheeraj Pandey on the company’s fourth quarter fiscal year 2017 earnings call. Nutanix closed its first year as a public company with $767 million in revenue, up 72 percent from fiscal 2016. “Calm, Xi, and Kubernetes containers form the trifecta of our product strategy for the next several years,” Pandey said on the conference call. Calm is the company’s multi-cloud management tool. Xi is its public cloud service that allows customers to move on-premise workloads to Google’s public cloud. Nutanix announced both at its .NEXT 2017 conference in June.
