VMware vSAN – why NAND based SSD may not be right
I like this post, as it covers the different types of SSDs available.
Yes, it is focused on vSAN, so that might interest you.

Nutanix AOS 5.19 – What’s New
AOS has got to be one of the easiest things to upgrade.
If you are on the STS releases, this looks like it will be worth the upgrade.

Nutanix Era 2.0 – DBaaS
I remember in 2001 when I first saw ESX.

Nutanix Kubernetes as a Service
Nutanix has Karbon (Kubernetes) on Prism Central for a while now.
This is a cloud based setup of Karbon.
Taken right from the site….
With Karbon Platform Services, Nutanix abstracts infrastructure complexity and delivers a managed Kubernetes, containers, and a host of essential developer services in an easy, readily-consumable PaaS environment.
That means you can deploy to any cloud you want.
