Nutanix
Connect Nutanix to ZigiOps. Supported from version 5.x, basic auth setup, and templates for syncing Nutanix alerts, metrics, and topology with OBM.
What is Nutanix Integration in ZigiOps?
Nutanix is a hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI) platform used for cloud computing, virtualization, and enterprise storage management across on-premises and hybrid cloud environments.
ZigiOps enables secure, API-based integration between Nutanix and ITSM, ITOM, and monitoring platforms. Using ZigiOps, alerts, metrics, and topology data from Nutanix can be synchronized with external systems to support automated incident management and infrastructure visibility workflows.
With ZigiOps, Nutanix can:
Forward infrastructure alerts to operations management platforms such as OBM
Synchronize cluster and node topology data with infrastructure monitoring tools
Feed performance metrics into centralized monitoring and capacity planning platforms
Participate in automated incident creation workflows triggered by infrastructure events
The integration is fully customizable and does not require custom scripts or plugins.

What Are the Most Common Nutanix Integration Use Cases?
Use Case 1: Nutanix Alert Forwarding to OBM
Infrastructure alerts generated by Nutanix, including cluster failures, storage warnings, and performance threshold breaches, can be forwarded to OBM as structured events. Operations teams can correlate and act on Nutanix alerts alongside data from other infrastructure platforms.
Use Case 2: Topology Data Synchronization with OBM
Nutanix cluster and node topology data can be synchronized with OBM, keeping the operations platform's configuration model up to date with the actual state of the Nutanix HCI environment.
Use Case 3: Metrics Ingestion into Monitoring Platforms
Nutanix performance metrics can be forwarded to centralized monitoring platforms, enabling infrastructure teams to track capacity utilization and performance trends across their hyperconverged environment.
