Another one complete! Over 6,000 workloads off VMware. 103 migration windows. Done ahead of the deadline. We've just closed out a VMware-to-Nutanix exit for one of the most heavily regulated firms in global financial services, orchestrated end to end in Clarity. The numbers: 🔹 6,000+ VMs and appliances in scope 🔹 76% migrated or replatformed onto Nutanix AHV 🔹 24% decommissioned, not moved – workloads with no owner or no future 🔹 103 migration windows: 24 weekend events and 79 midweek That last split matters. In an environment where every change is scrutinised and every outage is reportable, running most cutovers midweek means the dependency mapping, move groups and runbooks were trusted by the people who carry the regulatory risk. Weekends were kept for the events that genuinely needed them. A quarter of the estate never moved at all. Finding and retiring that is often where the real value in a VMware exit sits, and it's only possible when discovery is evidence-based rather than taken from the CMDB on trust. The customer's closing review was generous, and the credit is shared: their infrastructure and application teams across every region, the Nutanix team, and our own people who ran the plan through every cutover. "Thank you team - incredible work as always" John Pollard, Dave Franklin, Tim Haynes, Andy Roots, Craig Mitchell, Charles S., Angus Flashman-Wells, James D., Vaclav Petrucha and Ian Cook. "You're all rockstars!!" If you're facing a VMware renewal and wondering whether an exit at this scale is realistic in a regulated business – it is.
