From a legacy data center to Nutanix hyperconvergence

Servers, storage and virtualization in a single environment, managed from one screen and growing node by node. We handle the whole project: assessment, sizing, migration and training for your team.

Why replace legacy

Fewer parts, fewer headaches

In the traditional model, servers, storage and the storage network are bought, upgraded and supported separately. With hyperconvergence, all of that becomes a single cluster.

  • One management screen. Virtual machines, storage, performance and alerts in Prism.
  • Grow in steps. Need more capacity? Add a node instead of replacing the whole storage array.
  • Updates without downtime. Firmware, hypervisor and software updated node by node while the VMs keep running.
  • Fewer licenses. With the AHV hypervisor, virtualization is included in the platform.
  • Less space and power. Less equipment in the rack for the same workload.

Specialized Nutanix services

Current environment assessment

Inventory of servers, storage and virtual machines, with real CPU, memory and disk usage, so sizing is based on data, not guesswork.

Design and sizing

Cluster, network and data protection design, already planning for the next few years of growth.

Deployment

Cluster installation, configuration and testing, with Prism Central and security best practices from the start.

Virtual machine migration

Moving off VMware, Hyper-V or physical servers in waves, using Nutanix Move and a cutover window agreed with you.

Backup and disaster recovery

Snapshots, replication between sites and a recovery plan that is actually tested — not just written down.

Files and objects

File shares and object storage on the same cluster, replacing old file servers.

Kubernetes in your data center

Containers running on the Nutanix cluster itself, managed alongside your virtual machines.

Ongoing support

Updates, monitoring and continuous support, or training so your team can take over operations.

How we work

A migration without surprises

  1. Discovery

    We measure the current environment for a few days and map the dependencies between systems.

  2. Design

    We size the cluster and define the migration waves and the rollback plan for each one.

  3. Migration

    We move the virtual machines in agreed windows, validating each system with its owners.

  4. Handover

    We switch off the legacy environment, document the new one and train your team.

Case

Replacing legacy with hyperconvergence

An environment with servers, storage and virtualization from different generations, support contracts expiring and maintenance getting harder every year.

Starting point
Three-tier infrastructure — servers, storage and storage network — with out-of-support equipment and management spread across several tools.
What we did
Measured real usage, sized the Nutanix cluster, migrated the virtual machines in waves with a rollback plan and switched off the old environment.
The outcome
A single cluster managed in Prism, with node-by-node updates and room to grow by adding nodes.
