Any workload, any scale, all the time
Increase Your Freedom
Operating a data center increasingly involves complex tasks, such as managing multiple silos of servers, storage, networks, and mission-critical applications. Consequently, IT departments often spend most of their budget maintaining this infrastructure, instead of investing in new projects.
Lenovo ThinkAgile HX Series, a best-in-class hyperconverged system with Nutanix’s industry-leading software preloaded on Lenovo platforms, dramatically simplifies data center management, frees up your IT staff, and accelerates your deployment, ultimately reducing your total ownership cost.

Enhanced with faster processors and memory, Lenovo platforms hold more than 240 current performance world records, so you can run your workloads with blazing-fast speed^. Lenovo XClarity, a fast and intuitive resource management tool, captures Lenovo proactive platforms, enabling administrators to replace a failing component while avoiding unplanned downtime.
Lenovo has engineered, tailored, and validated ThinkAgile HX designs for a wide range of business solutions, so that you have the freedom to run any workload, at any scale, all the time. New refreshed HX series powered by 3rd Gen Intel Xeon Scalable processors is now available with 42% more cores and 40% greater GPU density.
