Are we there yet? Vellante began the segment by asking Miniman if the infrastructure is invisible today. He responded by saying, “Not yet. It’s getting better; you don’t need to touch as much.” Speaking to Nutanix customers, he relayed their opinion of the product. “It’s simpler. I can drop it in. It was good to hear the number of end-users we talked to this week say, ‘I could give my kid an iPad, and he could manage this,’ but that still means that somebody’s managing it,” Miniman said. Miniman went on to say that the Nutanix products eliminate some of the pain points with the migration of storage, especially the total cost of ownership, which he estimated to be about 30 percent of the overall cost of storage. He does not believe the technology is there yet, but he likes the messaging and what the company is planning moving forward. “Not invisible, but less visible,” Vellante concluded. Analyzing the market As an analyst, from a numbers standpoint, Miniman believes that Nutanix absolutely has the lead in the market, with last year’s revenue coming in at over $300 million, not counting deferred revenue from Dell, Inc. He noted the next highest revenue earnings in the market was not over $200 million. Despite EMC saying it was going to take Nutanix down by 2017, Miniman believes Nutanix has differentiation that can keep the company going. Economics rule Along with Nutanix marketshare, theCUBE hosts analyzed the overall economics of the industry. Discussing a probable IPO, depending on the “choppy” stock market through the election, relying on customer adoption and continuing the company’s need to keep the momentum, they believe that Nutanix is poised for growth. This is a must see wrap-up that includes forecasts on the marketplace and the economy.
