What about Nutanix?
- SteveNuts 3y agoNutanix has a Community Edition which works well, but has some fairly strict requirements due to the overhead of their controller VMs and such https://www.nutanix.com/products/community-edition https://www.nutanix.com/products/community-edition
- FireBeyond 3y agoI know(? it's been a while) that Nutanix focuses on HCI, so maybe less of an issue, but for me, even at home, all my storage backing is iSCSI over 10G. Nutanix CE purposefully doesn't support 10gbps NICs.
- justinclift 3y agoJust took a look at their website, and they don't even allow people to download their "Community Edition" without first providing an email address (with some basic validation of it), first and last name, phone number, job title, and company name. Fuck that. They can go and fuck themselves sideways instead. :(
- whalesalad 3y agoI would not choose it for a greenfield project unless I knew that they had a particular module for more enterprise-grade stuff like doing hardcore/proprietary interconnects.
- fuzzylightbulb 3y agoAcropolis is free but severely limits your choices when it comes to hardware and expansion down the line. I always felt like you were putting yourself over a barrel to consolidate both hypervisor and physical infrastructure to a single vendor.
