Nutanix Acquires Ryax Technologies to Accelerate Enterprise Agentic AI Initiatives

Acquisition Adds GPU Optimization and AI-Aware Scheduling Capabilities to Nutanix’s Hybrid Cloud Platform

Nutanix has acquired Ryax Technologies, a France-based company specializing in AI-driven compute orchestration and management, as the company looks to help enterprises build, deploy and manage agentic AI across hybrid infrastructure.

Nutanix said the acquisition will bring Ryax’s GPU utilization and smart scheduling capabilities into future releases of the Nutanix Kubernetes Platform (NKP) and Nutanix Enterprise AI (NAI). The move is part of Nutanix’s broader strategy to help organizations run and govern agentic AI across different infrastructure environments. Nutanix Ryax Technologies Partn…

The growing adoption of agentic AI is increasing demand for efficient AI inference workloads. However, GPU shortages and fragmented infrastructure have led many organizations to distribute computing resources across private data centers, hyperscalers and neocloud providers.

Nutanix said enterprises need a unified hybrid cloud operating model that can reduce this complexity, simplify management and improve the utilization of available hardware. Nutanix Ryax Technologies Partn…

Ryax Team to Join Nutanix

Andry Razafinjatovo, CEO of Ryax Technologies, said the Ryax platform was developed to simplify AI workload execution across hybrid infrastructure, including private data centers, hyperscalers and neoclouds.

“The Ryax platform was built to give enterprises seamless execution across hybrid infrastructure, like private data centers, hyperscalers and neoclouds, handling the backend complexity so teams can deploy, scale and manage AI workflows from day one,” said Razafinjatovo.

He added that combining Ryax technology and its team with Nutanix’s hybrid cloud platform would help organizations advance their agentic AI initiatives across different infrastructure environments. Nutanix Ryax Technologies Partn…

Rajiv Ramaswami, CEO of Nutanix, said agentic AI requires flexible architecture, simpler operations and more efficient use of infrastructure.

“Our acquisition of Ryax helps to directly answer the challenges enterprises face today with agentic AI infrastructure management,” said Ramaswami. He added that the acquisition represents a milestone in Nutanix’s efforts to simplify enterprise AI at scale and that the Ryax team will join Nutanix as the company continues to support AI, applications and data across different environments.
