We performed a comparison between High Performance Computing (HPC) and Nutanix Cloud Infrastructure (NCI) based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Hybrid Cloud Computing Platforms solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."HPC speeds up delivery time and reduces costs. It comes with the capability and flexibility to understand how engineering products work. You can understand the outcome without spending time and money."
"Our customers can publish scientific reports in prestigious magazines. HPC offers strong computing capabilities."
"There are a lot of features in Nutanix that are different from other hyper-converged solutions, such as site-to-site replication. VM-based site-to-site replication is bundled with the software licensing. For the DR, it has the availability groups, which is one of the key features that Nutanix provides."
"The scalability is great."
"Flexibility. We're able to mix performance nodes with storage nodes easily. Unlike other vendors where, if we start a hyperconverged solution with them, we have to stick to a specific model, to a specific series with specific capabilities, with Nutanix it's very easy to mix and match the best solution, especially for a dynamic infrastructure like ours."
"The dashboard of Nutanix Acropolis AOS allows for simple management. The dashboard has all the information online about what's going on at any given time."
"One of the most valuable features is that it can be applied at any scale."
"The fact that there is only one interface to deploy a complete solution for maximum storage is fantastic."
"It is all-in-one. The compute processing, storage, and network altogether make it convenient. We don't have to have different modules for expansion."
"It has been stable so far."
"The solution is expensive."
"There was a buzz around the integration of quantum computing and HPC. However, I don't see a real-life use case for it."
"It would be fantastic if there was a built-in layer, in Nutanix, that acted like a cloud interface. So far, we need to integrate a cloud interface on top of Nutanix for billing the usage for specific customers' domains. It would be great if a cloud gateway was built-in, inside Nutanix."
"The latency needs improvement"
"The licensing cost could be lower."
"There could be better support for high power ESX and other cross platform applications."
"The product could be improved with more security. The product needs a bit more experience in the market. I think you don't have the possibility to add other hardware. It could be improved with the ability to add and extend."
"The process of migrating from old hardware to new could improve."
"One disadvantage of Nutanix Acropolis AOS is it doesn't support external storage. Connecting external SAN storage to Nutanix, it's not supported."
"We'd like to have more resource management."
