Leading vendors like Nutanix and Arcfra — both are Gartner-recognized sample HCI vendors for VMware replacement — already deliver enterprise-grade cloud platforms that meet — or even exceed — VMware’s performance.
Below compares the storage architecture of Arcfra AECP, Nutanix NCI, and VMware VCF, and how these differences affect their performance.
In real-world testing, AECP also outperforms Nutanix and VMware. For example, in a securities order insertion test, the overall single-volume performance of AECP surpasses that of Nutanix single-volume deployment (with a performance improvement of over 60%) and the best-practice configuration (with a performance improvement of approximately 5%).
In a batch-running test conducted by an automobile finance company, while vSAN encountered write cache breakdown just 10 minutes into the batch job, AECP completed the batch in under 5 hours — a 42% reduction in processing time compared to the original production setup.
