100%. it was very hard (but not impossible) to compete against vmware in the virtualization space before the Hockening™; vSAN, vSphere and NSX were very very nice and super easy to use. nutanix succeeded more often than not. orgs now are kind-of scrambling for alternatives. great for nutanix. better for the CSPs. also great for red hat (my employer) since we have openshift virt, which is based on kubevirt but is much easier to use and works nicely with the rest of the ecosystem.
