Nutanix first ever software-as-a-service.

Nutanix Beam is the Saas introduce to lets enterprises analyze and better manage their use of public cloud.

Organizations of all sizes use the public cloud in hopes of reducing costs, but some find that they spend more money than they expected because they don’t have visibility into what all their users are doing on the public cloud, Smith said.

When an IT administrator logs into Nutanix Beam and provides their credentials for Amazon Web Services (AWS) or Microsoft Azure, for example, Nutanix Beam provides detailed information on the public cloud resources the organization is using and identifies zombie virtual machines (VMs that are running but aren’t doing any useful work) or other waste.

Beam, available now, is based on the Botmetric technology Nutanix recently acquired from Minjar.

It will analyze the real-time consumption of the cloud, and we will help you forecast how much you will spend over a period of time, It will give you straightforward recommendations on how to optimize your costs, how to delete unused resources, and how you can right-size other resources and change the instance types from one to another to save costs without impairing performance.”
