Paul Esch, President of TSANet, attended the Nutanix .NEXT event in Chicago. This event provided an opportunity to learn about the latest industry trends.   As an Elite TSANet Member, Nutanix is actively involved on the Board of Directors and has a large partner ecosystem, making this an excellent venue to discover how to best support our Members.

The main message at the conference was Run Anything Anywhere.  This statement would not be possible without the massive Technology Ecosystem that Nutanix has built.  Below is a list of key messages from the event, along with their implications for TSANet.

Partner Ecosystem

With over 1000+ Partners Nutanix has one of the largest Partner Programs at TSANet, and Partners were included in every session and product announcement.

Agentic AI Platform

Nutanix Agentic AI is a full‑stack platform for building, running, and governing agentic AI applications on the Nutanix Cloud Platform.  The platform includes Foundation Partners such as Nvidia and AMD as well as a long list of Hardware, Storage, Database, Cloud and AI Software vendors.

Multi-Tenant AI and Service Providers

Nutanix has expanded capabilities for AI focused service providers providing them with the ability to provide many services to their customers.  As TSANet expands into this space it was useful to see the role that Service Providers have in delivering the Agentic AI platform to customers.

Solution Expo – Visit with TSANet Members

Over 100 technology vendors participated in the Solution Expo, categorized into different technology areas. Since Nutanix includes TSANet as part of its Elevate Partner Program, all the vendors were TSANet members. This provided an opportunity to discuss the TSANet Partner Collaboration Platform with the many Partners that collaborate with Nutanix on customer support issues.

Key Takeaways

Nutanix .NEXT underscored how “Run Anything Anywhere” is being enabled through a broad partner ecosystem and a growing focus on AI and service-provider delivery. For TSANet, it highlighted opportunities to deepen engagement with Nutanix partners and expand adoption of the Partner Collaboration Platform to support multi-vendor customers.
