Nutanix Data Services for Kubernetes
As the adoption of cloud-native applications continues to grow, there is a pressing need to address the challenge of providing application-aware data services for Kubernetes. Many tools for developers and administrators only address the container layer, necessitating multiple third-party tools to solve for the application/namespace layers. Read this solution brief to see how Nutanix Data Services for Kubernetes (NDK) simplifies and unifies the process of provisioning and operating applications, providing a faster time to value with application-level data services.
What is Nutanix Data Services for Kubernetes (NDK)?
Nutanix Data Services for Kubernetes (NDK) is a solution designed to simplify and unify the management of application-aware data services for Kubernetes. It allows organizations to extend enterprise data services to containerized applications, enabling faster application provisioning and reducing operational risks. By moving operations to the application level, NDK helps streamline processes and enhances cost efficiency for businesses.
How does NDK improve operational efficiency?
NDK improves operational efficiency by allowing administrators to manage applications and namespaces directly, rather than just focusing on containers. It offers a 3-step deployment process that simplifies application-level data services, enabling self-service capabilities for developers. Additionally, NDK integrates with existing Kubernetes tools, eliminating the need for new training or tools, which further streamlines operations.
What are the cost benefits of using NDK?
Organizations can achieve significant cost efficiencies with NDK by optimizing resource allocation and reducing management costs associated with cloud-native applications. By abstracting infrastructure dependencies and simplifying operations at the container, namespace, and application levels, NDK helps businesses lower expenditures and better manage their infrastructure budgets, ultimately freeing up resources for other strategic initiatives.
