At the summit, Nutanix demonstrated how its hybrid multicloud platform can help organisations accelerate application modernisation, AI initiatives and deployments while simplifying infrastructure management.

Leading Sri Lankan organisations from the banking, retail and telecommunications sectors, together with sovereign cloud service providers, also shared their experiences at the event.
