Chennai: Leading Tech Adoption for Business Transformation
Enterprise cloud OS leader, Nutanix, Inc. is already seeing early success as it ramps up efforts and investment in Chennai. According to the company, the IT/ITES, BFSI, manufacturing, healthcare & agriculture markets are all responsive to the opportunities provided by Nutanix, and it has already confirmed a number of enterprises are now Nutanix customers.
The Nutanix success in Chennai follows a strategic decision by the enterprise cloud OS leader to target the city’s enterprises - using the experience and success gained elsewhere in India to penetrate the country’s second largest economy.
Chennai highlights perfectly the success of an inclusive approach combined with advanced software defined technologies, like Hyperconverged Infrastructure, HCI. An overwhelming majority of Enterprise customers in Chennai have adopted the pioneering, Nutanix hypervisor, AHV - using Nutanix for business-critical workloads.
Reaffirming its commitment to, and partnership with, the state’s business community, Nutanix has become a trusted partner for Chennai CIO Klub chapter members. The CIO Klub has been instrumental in developing Chennai as a model city moving aggressively towards modernization and digitization.
“Being able to instantly adapt to emerging competition or customer requirements while optimising compliance and governance is now an everyday part of our business. That means ensuring we embrace simple, safe, secure and scalable technology to provide a foundation for us to grow” commented Mr. V. Sendil Kumar, President of CIO Klub (Chennai Chapter).
“Nutanix is a true ally of our community in this journey, and we will continue to work with them as we drive for sustainable growth.”
Faiz Shakir, Regional Director- South, Nutanix added “Nutanix is committed to investing in and helping develop Chennai’s digital economy. Modern cities realise that their long-term welfare and prosperity is dependent on a modern infrastructure - one that maximises the value and benefits of current and future technologies. That is where we fit in. Nutanix is the building block for Chennai’s digital economy and future success.”
The Nutanix success in Chennai is part of its efforts to expand nationwide. It also reinforces the company’s continued investment in India with the recent appointment of Balakrishnan Anantharaman as Vice President and Managing Director-Sales for India and SAARC, an expansion of its engineering and support operations, and the opening of additional sales offices in the region.
