Enterprise virtualisation and storage firm Nutanix has unveiled a new purchasing programme that intends to help service providers build differentiated services and increase datac entre efficiency.
Dubbed FlexPrice, the new pricing programme enables providers access to services on Nutanix’s invisible infrastructure.
It lets service providers take advantage of Nutanix’s solutions for developing cloud-based and managed services like infrastructure as a service, desktop as a service, and disaster recovery.
They can secure Nutanix-qualified hardware and allow Nutanix web-scale software on a flexible subscription basis.
The programme allows providers to reduce upfront capital investment when they develop and deploy new services.
It results in faster time to market for new differentiated services and higher datacentre utilization. FlexPrice addresses the lengthy procurement cycle challenges that degrade the service delivery speed.
Customers can deploy and expand their infrastructure one node at a time with three, six, 12 and 36 month term-based pricing, and reduce upfront capital costs for storage, servers and virtualisation.
Nutanix VP of Americas channel and distribution Chris Morgan said: "We are excited to help service providers build the right infrastructure to align with their business model so they can drive competitive differentiation and enhanced profitability.
"FlexPrice gives service providers a new way to compete, and offers our customers a platform upon which they can build truly differentiated services."
