Case Study: Skye Cloud achieves lower costs and greater scalability with Nutanix

Top UK Service Provider Takes A Lead From Customers To Drive Down Costs And Stay Ahead Of Hybrid Multicloud Curve

Skye Cloud, a fast-growing UK cloud service provider, needed to modernize its aging mix of servers, SAN storage, and VMware as customer demand and storage performance requirements surged. The company wanted a more scalable, cost-effective platform that could support hybrid multicloud customers, and it chose Nutanix Cloud Platform to help address those challenges.

Nutanix implemented Nutanix Cloud Platform with Prism Pro and the AHV hypervisor, alongside tools like Nutanix Move, Veeam, Files, and Flow. The migration was completed with zero downtime and minimal customer involvement, while delivering faster performance, simpler management, and lower operating costs; Skye Cloud said the project effectively paid for itself from day one and left it with 50% spare capacity for future growth.
