Virtual Machine Manager (VMM) is a popular Application Centric Infrastructure (ACI) feature integrating network fabric operations with a virtual machine domain, creating a single experience to configure, manage, and troubleshoot workloads spanning both the physical and virtual realms.

Leveraging VMM, enterprises can take the first step in unifying their network and compute teams to expedite time-to-value for common network changes, prevent human error, and provide unprecedented visibility to the virtual domain enabling use-cases like classification, policy redirect, and day 2 workflow automation. In addition, adding to the ACI integration family, we are pleased to announce a VMM integration with Nutanix enabled by the new ACI 6.0.3F release.
