Cisco AI PODs with Nutanix Agentic AI: Enterprise-Ready AI Infrastructure At a Glance
Available Languages
Bias-Free Language
The documentation set for this product strives to use bias-free language. For the purposes of this documentation set, bias-free is defined as language that does not imply discrimination based on age, disability, gender, racial identity, ethnic identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and intersectionality. Exceptions may be present in the documentation due to language that is hardcoded in the user interfaces of the product software, language used based on RFP documentation, or language that is used by a referenced third-party product.

A unified foundation for enterprise AI success
Cisco® AI PODs with Nutanix Agentic AI deliver a seamless, full-stack infrastructure that fuses high-performance hardware with intelligent AI orchestration. By tightly integrating GPU-dense Cisco UCS® compute and high-performance Cisco Nexus® AI networking with the Nutanix Kubernetes Platform (NKP) and the Nutanix Enterprise AI (NAI) for AI model inference and management, this is a complete, cohesive ecosystem engineered for the rigors of modern AI.
This joint architecture standardizes your stack from fabric to lifecycle, using modular building blocks to simplify provisioning, automate Kubernetes, and enforce governance from the data center to the edge.
Gain a predictable, scalable platform that empowers you to move from experimental pilots to production-grade AI with total operational clarity and confidence. From model onboarding and RAG enablement to day-2 observability, Cisco AI PODs with Nutanix operationalizes your AI strategy, turning complex, fragmented workflows into a high-performance engine for innovation.
Scale AI solutions with Cisco AI PODs with Nutanix
● Accelerate AI time-to-production with pre-validated, full-stack infrastructure building blocks.
● Create a turnkey experience offering a simple UI and “one-click” deployment of LLMs, eliminating the need for deep data scientist expertise for AI services.
● Simplify AI model governance with a unified control plane, bringing operational discipline to AI initiatives.
● Scale AI workloads predictably from pilot to production with a modular architecture that grows seamlessly with your GPU capacity.
● Enforce built-in security and data privacy with platform RBAC (role-based access control) to control which users and teams can access specific models and endpoints.
Operationalize AI with a unified, scalable foundation
Merge Cisco’s high-density compute and high-performance, integrated AI networking with Nutanix’s orchestration to create a turn-key environment. Remove the friction of assembling disparate components with a proven architecture for model deployment and inferencing.
Cisco AI PODs with Nutanix enable you to:
● Deploy validated scale-unit building blocks that eliminate design guesswork and ensure consistent performance with architecture built specifically for enterprise AI.
● Standardize cluster operations through the Nutanix Kubernetes Platform, which provides consistent provisioning, scaling, and policy enforcement across your data center and edge environments.
● Govern model lifecycles using Nutanix Enterprise AI (NAI), a centralized control plane that standardizes how LLMs and open-source models are onboarded, tuned, and monitored for peak performance.
Unlike disjointed hardware and software stacks, this joint solution provides a single, cohesive ecosystem. It transforms AI from experimental silos into a repeatable, enterprise-grade platform, ensuring your infrastructure scales seamlessly with evolving AI ambitions.
