Distributed Storage Fabric

Nutanix Acropolis relies on the hypervisor-agnostic Distributed Storage Fabric (DSF) to provide
data services such as storage provisioning, snapshots, clones, and data protection for virtual
machines directly, rather than using the hypervisor’s storage stack.

Nutanix nodes with the Acropolis hypervisor include a distributed VM management service
responsible for storing VM configuration, making scheduling decisions, and exposing a
management interface.

Data Protection (DP)
