"VDI was one of our first workloads. We made it possible to serve virtual desktops from the cloud, but Microsoft has painted all VDI as antiquated applications based on legacy three-tier architectures."
"Hybrid operations for AVD is going to be a game changer because it delivers your desktops with much lower latency to meet the needs for high-end users."
"Azure Local is Azure Local. We do not see it being used by large enterprise customers. We are a prime potential partner to get AVD on prem at scale."
"Another on-prem workload Nutanix now supports is Cisco's calling applications, which won spontaneous applause from the .NEXT keynote crowd."
Nutanix has partnered with Microsoft to improve on-premises desktop virtualization, leveraging its VDI experience. CEO Rajiv Ramaswami emphasized the challenges of delivering VDI at scale, particularly during peak usage times. He believes that hybrid operations for Azure Virtual Desktop will significantly reduce latency for high-end users. Nutanix's executive Thomas Cornely dismissed Azure Local as a competitor, asserting that Nutanix is well-positioned to implement AVD on-premises for large enterprises. Additionally, Nutanix now supports Cisco's calling applications on its platform.
