Over the past decade, a lot has been written about hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI). But so much has changed over the years as HCI has evolved from a niche technology to a cornerstone in the datacenter and in the cloud.

Next-generation HCI goes beyond solving the myriad storage challenges in traditional datacentres to form the very core of an enterprise-wide operating platform that spans your on-premises and cloud environments.

This guide takes you on a journey from the earliest days of HCI through today and into a bountiful and secure future. After reading this book, you’ll understand how Nutanix has positioned its next-generation HCI solution as a centralised launching point for all of your current and future needs.
