tiers into a single, integrated appliance.
“This distribution agreement with Nutanix places Arrow right in

traditional IT products. Web-scale architectures and technologies
were pioneered in large cloud and Web companies – such as Google,
Facebook and Amazon – and are now being adopted by mainstream
enterprises.
