Case Study: GDIT modernizes U.S. military infrastructure with Nutanix Kubernetes Platform

GDIT runs secure Kubernetes for 3 years with Nutanix

General Dynamics Information Technology (GDIT) needed to modernize infrastructures for U.S. military agencies by establishing a secure, consistent, and standardized Kubernetes platform. Their challenge was to create flexible container management solutions that could support digital engineering and application development for defense clients. To meet this, GDIT partnered with Nutanix, utilizing the Nutanix Kubernetes Platform (NKP).

Nutanix provided GDIT with a secure, reliable, and production-ready platform based on NKP. This solution enabled greenfield deployments across cloud, on-premises, and edge environments, offering first-class air-gapped security, operational efficiency, and centralized multicluster management. The results have been excellent, with initial deployments running securely and resiliently for over three years, forming a solid foundation for future innovation and leading to expanded contracts across the Department of Defense.
