Nutanix Mine: Secondary Storage Simplified

Location: Hall C, Room 6

Tuhina Goel, Product Marketing Manager, Nutanix

Mark Nijmeijer, Director, Product Management, NutanixAfter the introduction of Nutanix Mine at .NEXT Anaheim, there was considerable excitement in Nutanix latest innovation helping to unify primary and secondary storage in a tightly integrated solution. At HYCU, we were just as excited to be the first out of the gate to support Nutanix Mine. From our recent webinar with Tuhina, which you can check out as a replay here, “Making Secondary Storage Invisible, Nutanix Mine with HYCU,” we know this session will generate considerable interest. Both Mark and Tuhina will provide an update on how Nutanix is making Infrastructure both “Simple” and “Invisible.”

11:45 am – 12:30 pm

Petabyte-scale Storage for Unstructured Data

Location: Auditorium 11

Laura Jordana, Technical Marketing Engineer, Nutanix

Vincent Van Engelen, Business Leader u2013 Files EMEA, Nutanix

No truer question was ever asked than, “Wouldn’t it be great if you could enable storage services on demand without learning a new set of tools?” We couldn’t agree more. In this sure to be packed session, Laura and Vincent will be sharing the latest Nutanix innovation around both Nutanix Files and Nutanix Objects. At HYCU, we were excited to see some of the early performance testing around HYCU and Nutanix Objects in a recent blog Laura shared, “Using Nutanix Objects as an S3-Compatible Backup Target.” And, we’re particularly proud of our support and innovation around Nutanix Files. One item around how long it takes to do an incremental backup using HYCU and Nutanix Files when one file has changed among 20M makes makes for interesting viewing, “HYCU Incremental Backup of 20M Nutanix Files Share.”

11:45 am – 12:30 pm

Xi Clusters: Accelerate Your Hybrid Cloud Journey with Nutanix in Public Clouds

Location: Hall C, Room 4

Dwayne Lessner, Principal Technical Marketing Engineer, Nutanix

Sridhar Devarapalli, General Manager, Networking and Cloud Services, Nutanix

Nutanix’s focus on making Infrastructure Invisible is evolving to even making clouds invisible. Customers that want to get the same data management capabilities but want to leverage the burst ability of Public Clouds can benefit from Xi Clusters. When clusters come up as permanent or as a burst, customers still need to protect their critical data. For HYCU, the first solution to be validated on Xi Clusters, Xi Clusters definitely gives customers the power of Nutanix with the on-demand availability of AWS.

1:45 pm – 2:30 pm

Remote and Branch Office (ROBO) Deployments That Work the First Time

Location: Hall C, Room 2

For years, remote and branch office workers have felt like second-class citizens when it came to IT. And while the challenges to support these workers are unique and varied, ensuring you are reducing costs and streamlining efficiencies to support them at the edge, is another attractive Nutanix innovation. And, support for ROBO environments needs to be done with 1-click simplicity, much like Nutanix. You can read more on how HYCU supports that here, “Optimized Nutanix Remote/Branch Office (ROBO) Data Backup and Recovery.”

1:45 pm – 2:30 pm

Introduction to Nutanix Files: Intelligent File Storage for the Cloud Era

Location: Auditorium 11

You don’t need to turn far to realize that unstructured data rates have been growing unchecked for years, and is not a new phenomenon. In large part, that is why there is so much interest in finding the right solutions to manage and protect these solutions. And while managing these environments presents challenges, as we know, backing up massive, scale-out file servers has always been equally challenging. Perhaps that is one reason we’re excited by this session as Dave, Dave and Luc will shine a light on Nutanix Files. You can read more on a few ways we add value to Nutanix Files in a post our VP Engineering Goran Garevski shared, “Incremental for Nutanix Files.”

Location: Hall C, Room 6

The journey to the cloud can’t be complete without figuring out how to integrate public cloud offerings. With Nutanix running on-premises but you want to take advantage of disaster recovery in the cloud, Xi Leap is an obvious choice. And when you are running Xi Leap, you also need to protect the data on the cloud. When you do, you’ll want to make sure to choose the right data protection solution. One more reason, we’re looking forward to working with Nutanix on Xi Leap.
