Nutanix Acquires Frame

San Jose-based Nutanix, a developer of enterprise cloud computing software, said late Thursday that it has agreed to acquire Mainframe2 (Frame), a developer of cloud-based, Windows desktop and application delivery software. Financial details of the acquisition were not announced. Frame's tools are used to provide "desktop-as-a-service" from the cloud, helping IT administrators centrally manage their desktop deployments. Nutanix said Frame will help it add support for such cloud services as Xi Cloud and the Google Cloud Platform, in addition to its existing support for AWS and Azure.
