IBM Hyperconverged Systems powered by Nutanix

The IBM® Hyperconverged Systems powered by Nutanix offering is an infrastructure system with a software-centric architecture that tightly integrates compute, storage, networking, and virtualization resources and other technologies pre-integrated in a scale-out server.

In the IBM Hyperconverged Systems powered by Nutanix offering, individual servers (called nodes) are clustered together in a scale-out topology managed by the Nutanix software stack. Internal physical storage resources from each node are pooled into one large, virtualized distributed file system. Additional servers can be added to increase compute or storage capacity dynamically with a single click.

This information assists you in understanding the components of the IBM Hyperconverged Systems powered by Nutanix, planning for the physical location of your system, and servicing the hardware building blocks with the service maintenance packages of the system.
