What Nutanix Flow Virtual Networking is

Nutanix Flow Virtual Networking is software-defined networking for creating and managing virtual private clouds (VPCs) in software. VPCs let administrators manage IP ranges, subnets, routing, and gateways, including isolated tenants with overlapping IP addresses. Networks can span Nutanix clusters and connect local, disaster-recovery, and public-cloud deployments. Teams can run overlay networks alongside existing VLANs and migrate from VLANs to VPCs with a one-click process. Integrated NAT and VPN services connect VPCs to other private and virtual public-cloud networks. The product also supports policy-based routing, security-service insertion, and access control lists that work with Flow Network Security microsegmentation. It is built for AHV virtualization and managed through Prism Central, with APIs available for automation. Pricing is available on request, and there is no free plan. Nutanix lists Flow Virtual Networking as included with specified NCI and NCP licenses; existing customers may request trial licenses for up to 30 days, with an extension to a maximum of 60 days.
