Question
SR-IOV & Nutanix
Hi, I am currently working with a customer who is looking into Nutanix and we are planning a POC. They have large VMWARE environment running 6.7. They have some applications that require SR-IOV. If we decide to go to Acropolis, is SR-IOV supported in Acropolis or is there a feature similar to that available natively on Nutanix? Many thanks.

Hi @williambiii
Nutanix AHV do not support SR-IOV, but offers features like virtio multiqueue and in-guest DPDK to reduce latency and increase throughput for guest network operations.
So, I will really recommend you give it a try, cause depending of the use case, theses features will be more than enough.

+4SR-IOV isn't supported or isn't best practice on Nutanix at all regardless of the hypervisor of I am not mistaken. It isn't really needed given how the core DSF works.
