Nutanix CEO: The word cloud has been bastardized

Cloud seems to be becoming ubiquitous in the enterprise world with the entire ecosystem of technology OEMs, channel partners and CIOs hopping on to the bandwagon. #Nutanix, as an enterprise cloud platform company, offers hyper converged infra solutions for organizations. IDG India spoke to Dheeraj Pandey, Co-founder, CEO and Chairman, Nutanix, on his recent India visit about the hype surrounding cloud as opposed to the reality. “The word cloud has been bastardized as other words - social, mobile and IoT. They become frothy terms over time, thus creating a bubble-like environment. And eventually it means nothing to no one,” said a candid Pandey. Will the cloud bubble burst soon? “If you ask what qualifies as cloud most people don’t have a good answer except rented IT is cloud. You could always have rented something from #Verizon or #Savvis in the last decade or so. Ten years ago you could have rented from #Oracle business on demand,” said Pandey.
