Nutanix Virtual Computing Platform
Nutanix Virtual Computing Platform (VCP) is a converged infrastructure solution that consolidates the Compute (server) tier and the Storage tier into a single, integrated appliance.
Nutanix VCP enables its users to secure their data when it is at rest using software-only encryption and key-based access management (cluster's native or external Key Management Server (KMS) for software-only encryption). Nutanix VCP supports Key Management Interoperability Protocol (KMIP) for interoperability and strong security.
CipherTrust Manager can be integrated with Nutanix VCP to act as an external KMS, as shown in the following diagram.
