Insights
Nutanix's Leader position in Forrester's container platform report validates their D2iQ acquisition and strengthens their multicloud strategy.
Nutanix's designation as a Leader in Forrester's Multicloud Container Platforms Wave represents significant validation for their container strategy and 2023 D2iQ acquisition. This recognition directly enhances Nutanix's competitive positioning against VMware in the crucial Kubernetes management space, particularly as enterprises accelerate container adoption for application modernization.
The report specifically highlights how Nutanix has successfully integrated D2iQ's technology while maintaining its leadership team and expertise - a rare acquisition success story in enterprise tech. This positions Nutanix to capture two critical market transitions: 1) VMware customers potentially looking for alternatives following Broadcom's acquisition, and 2) enterprises needing unified platforms that bridge traditional VM infrastructure with modern containerized environments.
What makes this particularly valuable is the timing - containers represent the future of application deployment, but most enterprises still run significant VM workloads. Nutanix now offers a compelling migration path for both. The report's mention of Nutanix's AI integration capabilities further strengthens their position in high-growth infrastructure markets.
Forrester's validation of Nutanix's "mature" supporting services and partner ecosystem addresses a key enterprise concern around container platforms - the availability of comprehensive support structures necessary for production deployments. This positions NKP as not merely a technology solution but a business-ready platform with the enterprise-grade backing needed for mission-critical deployments.

Its supporting services and partner ecosystem are notably mature, and its roadmap is a detailed account of how cloud-native tech from D2iQ dovetails with the wider Nutanix approach.�
