Akamai Technologies Extends Prism Across Infrastructure Modernization
Akamai Technologies, an information technology organization in the United States, uses Prism from Nutanix to support datacenter exit planning for migration squads.
Teams at Akamai Technologies moved workload migration onto Nutanix after local tools started to collide.
“In the United States, migration squads already knew where workload migration went wrong: too many copies, too little ownership, and a close process that waited on the loudest inbox.”
“Nutanix offers hyperconverged infrastructure and hybrid multi-cloud software so IT teams can run VMs and Kubernetes consistently.”

Story
Akamai Technologies did not need another dashboard that nobody opened. It needed datacenter exit planning to move. In the United States, migration squads already knew where workload migration went wrong: too many copies, too little ownership, and a close process that waited on the loudest inbox.
Prism from Nutanix is now in that path. Nutanix offers hyperconverged infrastructure and hybrid multi-cloud software so IT teams can run VMs and Kubernetes consistently. The company treats it as production tooling for datacenter exit planning, which is why migration squads live in it rather than exporting from it once a quarter.
Akamai Technologies can show how workload migration is handled today. That is the value: a repeatable way to run datacenter exit planning on software the rest of the industry already recognizes.
