Introduction
Lenovo Converged HX Series Nutanix Appliances are designed to help you simplify IT infrastructure, reduce costs, and accelerate time to value. These hyperconverged appliances from Lenovo combine industry-leading hyperconvergence software from Nutanix with Lenovo enterprise platforms.
Several common uses for the Lenovo Converged HX Series appliances that feature Intel Xeon processors include virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI), server virtualization, private/hybrid clouds, enterprise applications and remote/branch office. Starting with as few as three nodes to keep your acquisition costs down, the HX Series is capable of immense scalability as your needs grow.
The Lenovo Converged HX Series appliances are available in three models (shown in the following figure) that can be tailored to your needs:
- Lenovo Converged HX3500: Optimized for compute-heavy environments.

The Lenovo Converged HX Series appliances offer the following key features:
- Enterprise storage
The Lenovo Converged HX Series Nutanix Appliances deliver enterprise data storage as an on-demand service by employing highly distributed software architecture. The Nutanix Software eliminates the need for traditional SAN and NAS solutions, and delivers a rich set of software-defined services that are entirely VM-centric, including snapshots, high availability, disaster recovery, deduplication and more.
- Inline and post-process compression at the sub-block level increase effective storage capacity by up to four times.
- Redirect-on-write snapshots and writeable clones at the granularity of a single VM increase efficiency.
- Distributed caching of VM data improves performance in multi-reader scenarios, such as VDI with linked clones.
- Inline deduplication in the read cache and post-process deduplication in the capacity tier improve performance and effective capacity.
- Powerful acceleration capabilities such as caching, automatic data tiering and data locality speed storage performance.
- Data protection
The Nutanix Software offers a natively integrated solution for data protection and continuous availability at VM granularity. It gives administrators an affordable range of options to meet the recovery point objectives (RPO) and recovery time objectives (RTO) for different applications.
- Unlimited local backups using VM-centric snapshots and integrated workflows delivering RPO in minutes.
- Natively integrated solution for disaster recovery enables simple VM-centric backup, recovery and replication with application-level consistency.
- Built-in Cloud Connect hybrid cloud technology enables seamless backup of data to public cloud services.
- Metro availability feature provides continuous availability of data across different sites during planned maintenance or disasters through synchronous replication.
- Support for Microsoft Volume Shadow Services (VSS), VMware vStorage API for Data Protection (VADP), and seamless integration with third-party backup providers.
- Infrastructure resilience
The platform for the Lenovo Converged HX Series Nutanix Appliances is fault resistant, with no single point of failure and no bottlenecks. The system uses a shared-nothing architecture, where all data, metadata and services are distributed to all nodes within the cluster, and is built to detect, isolate and recover from failures anywhere in the system. Lenovo hyperconverged appliances deliver always-on operation, and can survive system hardware, software and hypervisor issues and maintain 100% availability to applications and data.
- Intelligent data placement in different physical failure domains, or availability domains, (for example, separate racks or power sources) delivers greater fault tolerance.
- Data and metadata replicated across multiple nodes provide user-defined resilience against hardware failures.
- Multiple copies of data ensure 100% data availability in the event that a Nutanix controller VM is unavailable due to failure or maintenance.
- Automatic integrity checks during reads and silent at-rest error detection for data consistency.
- Management and analytics
The platform for the Lenovo Converged HX Series Nutanix Appliances marries web-scale capabilities with an intuitive user-centric management experience to simplify every aspect of the IT infrastructure lifecycle. Nutanix Prism provides a single pane of glass to monitor and control one or more Nutanix clusters, with simplified workflows and rich automation for common administrative tasks.
- Elegantly simple management framework with intuitive workflows delivers radical simplicity and powerful control to IT management.
- Single pane of glass delivers centralized visibility and management of multiple Nutanix clusters across the world.
- Rich automation and intuitive workflows simplify deployment, provisioning, orchestration and maintenance of Nutanix clusters.
- End-to-end visibility of VMs, nodes and disks and the ability to visually diagnose potential issues gives administrators total infrastructure control.
- Programmatic control of every aspect of cluster management, including deployment, upgrades, data protection, and performance management enables powerful automation.
- Streamlined management for hypervisor and virtual machines on Nutanix.
- Security
Nutanix software combines powerful features, such as two-factor authentication and data-at-rest encryption, with a security development lifecycle that is integrated into product development to help customers meet the most stringent security requirements.
- Security incorporated into every step of the software development process enables verifiably secure software releases.
- Two-step authentication using a client certificate and username/password, along with cluster lockdown, provides protection against unauthorized access.
