The features of Nutanix Unified Storage (NUS) that I find most appealing are the objects, which we use the most, and then files are second. NUS has those two components, and the objects are what we work with primarily. What I appreciate about Nutanix Unified Storage (NUS) is that it's simple, easy to use, easy to maintain, and easy to install. It's a part of the Nutanix stack, allowing you to manage everything in one console. Having a single vendor experience and utilizing space on a Nutanix cluster that may not be fully used is beneficial. You can stand up objects, which is S3 compatible, and send data there. The flexibility of it is really important. You have your normal file share or an object, and it's advantageous to have one solution for both. From what I've heard from customers that I work with regarding workloads, everybody seems happy with Nutanix Unified Storage (NUS). Customers mostly use it for file shares, and they are content with it because it's resilient, easy to work with, and easy to maintain. I It is more stable and scalable compared to the Windows file server. My impressions of the cybersecurity features of Nutanix Unified Storage (NUS) when dealing with unstructured data, such as ransomware threats, are positive. As a platform, Nutanix is secure. If you use the features of their product called Flow Network Security, you can protect the NUS environment from ransomware by applying zero trust principles regarding access to your NUS. I mostly use Data Lens for the security features more than the cost features regarding how it impacts data management costs. It would do a pretty good job of analyzing costs since there was an element in an acquisition Nutanix made that included a security piece and a cost piece. They haven't done much with the cost piece, so it's there a little bit but not as much as with security.
