Jeddah University Delivers \u2018A Grade\u2019 Hybrid Learning with Nutanix Cloud Platform<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Nutanix<\/a> (NASDAQ: NTNX<\/a>), a leader in hybrid multicloud computing, today announced the successful deployment of its Nutanix Cloud Platform (NCP) at Jeddah University, enhancing the educational institution\u2019s classroom, lab, and remote learning experiences while surpassing cost-saving expectations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jeddah University, one of Saudi Arabia\u2019s newest academic institutions, offers innovative programmes designed to prepare students for leadership roles in the Kingdom\u2019s evolving job market. Its focus on digital learning underscores the university\u2019s alignment with Saudi Vision 2030, which aims to establish a digitally driven, knowledge-based economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As one of the most modern Saudi public universities, Jeddah University is pioneering the \u2018New Saudi University Mission\u2019. Collaboration, innovation, and community impact underpin this initiative, which seeks to deliver a differentiated education through the integration of research and study. This makes virtual desktops indispensable to students, who rely on them to attend classes, participate in labs, collaborate with batchmates, and access learning resources in a secure and seamless manner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When VDI-related operational costs, inconsistent performance, and IT management complexity began to affect students\u2019 remote learning and research lab experiences, the University seized the opportunity to standardise on Nutanix. \u201cWe decided to get ahead of these issues by deploying a platform for secure, scalable, and high-performance virtual desktops. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

While Nutanix\u2019s recognition as a leader in Gartner\u2019s Magic Quadrant for seven consecutive years was impressive, it was the overwhelmingly positive feedback from our industry peers in Saudi Arabia that ultimately influenced our decision to move forward,\u201d said Mr. Hosam G. Mutir, Systems Engineer at Jeddah University.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From the outset, Nutanix\u2019s solution proved effortless, integrating seamlessly with key applications used by the University \u2014 including its Learning Management System, Student Information System, and productivity tools such as Microsoft Office. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Driven by the enhanced stability and performance of the new environment, both student and staff productivity \u2014 and critically, their satisfaction \u2014 have seen a significant boost.\u00a0New VDI machines can be provisioned in under 3 minutes, ensuring fast, seamless access to academic resources as the student body grows. The implementation has cut management overhead and operational time by over 45%, enabling IT to refocus efforts on innovation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve seen significant improvements across every key metric \u2014 performance, scalability, security, and ease of management. Our students have greatly benefitted, and operating costs have been reduced by an incredible 40%. It\u2019s truly remarkable,\u201d said Mr. Mutir.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As an institution that prides itself on being one of the most modern in the Kingdom, it\u2019s no surprise that Jeddah University has its gaze firmly set on the next technological horizon. Mutir emphasised that Nutanix will continue to be a trusted partner in realising the University\u2019s forward-looking vision.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe remain committed to strengthening this partnership, particularly in the adoption of emerging technologies. Currently, we are developing a strategic plan for GenAI and other innovative solutions. Nutanix gives us the confidence to boldly explore new frontiers and help shape the future of higher education in the Kingdom,\u201d he concluded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
