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."
"The most valuable features are the user-friendly dashboard and that we don't need to move resources manually when adding new nodes into running clusters."
"The hyperconvergence service, as well as the DR solution, are game-changers for Nutanix."
"In terms of scalability, adding a number of nodes, I find that it will not be any issues."
"It is easy to use. One of the things they have as a design goal is to reduce complexity and simplify things."
"Prism Central allows managing the cluster from a single pane of glass, and it allows a deeper dive into the solution."
"The most valuable feature is Move, which allows you to migrate virtual machines from VM to AHV."
"Ease of deployment"
"This operating system offers stability. Setup is straightforward."
"There was a buzz around the integration of quantum computing and HPC. However, I don't see a real-life use case for it."
"The solution is expensive."
"I would like them to update their licensing to provide more features with their basic license."
"Deployment could be more user-friendly - currently, it requires certain skills with the network and nodes."
"The look and feel of the web GUI of this system needs improvement, when compared to other systems. Its hardware integration also needs improvement."
"I would like better integration of XenServer into the AOS and Prism Central."
"To have internal stability, we needed to network the solution ourselves. Performance depends on the application. Performance could be the lack of IOPS, memory and CPU and configuration issues."
"Nutanix now supports four hypervisors but they are not all at feature parity."
"We ran into an issue as a managed service provider because Acropolis isn't designed to be used the way we are running it. For example, if we want to deploy a Kubernetes service, the customer networks need to reach our protected cluster network. We have isolated our customers in separate VLANs. However, our customers' networks must access our cluster network to get features like iSCSI or Kubernetes to run. It's challenging."
"Areas for improvement would be the memory setting and the CPU setting reserve features, which are not available on Acropolis. I also feel that the DR solution, the reporting, and the component that is combined with the Nutanix OSP need to be improved."
