Nutanix Source Connector for CI Synchronizer

Nutanix is a leading provider of hyperconverged infrastructure solutions, transforming traditional data center operations. The Nutanix platform integrates computing, storage, and networking into a single, efficient system, eliminating the need for separate hardware components. The CI Synchronizer Nutanix connector provides seamless synchronisation of your Nutanix landscape into your Configuration Management Database (CMDB) providing absolute visibility of your assets and their dependencies.

Getting up and running to connect to your Nutanix Central instance is very easy. All that is required is Nutanix user credentials with read-only access and you are ready to configure the connection in CI Synchronizer and start synchronising. Multiple instances are also supported.
