Nutanix NDFS The Nutanix Distributed Filesystem (NDFS) The Nutanix Distributed File System is a scale-out distributed file system designed for virtualization workloads. NDFS delivers fault tolerance, high performance, scalability and reliability for server and desktop virtual machines. NUTANIX INC. – CONFIDENTIAL AND PROPRIETARY

NDFS Linear Scale-out Performance Virtual Machines Scale-able Open. Stack with NDFS A converged platform in which compute and storage can be independently scaled via the use of CPU- and storage-heavy nodes in the same cluster. Number of Nutanix Nodes The Nutanix Distributed File System performance scales linearly as new blocks and nodes are added to the cluster. These new nodes are self-discovered with the Avahi protocol and added to the cluster with zero downtime. Nutanix delivers a simple model for scaling your Open. Stack deployment.
