Explanation

Nutanix Flow is the native micro-segmentation and network security solution for AHV clusters. It allows administrators to define security policies at the category/label level, and to create explicit allow or block rules between VM groups - such as preventing all traffic from a VDI category to an application-server category. Flow operates at the hypervisor layer (no additional network hardware needed), making it ideal for east-west traffic control within a Nutanix AHV environment. Beam is a cloud cost and security governance tool, Calm is an application lifecycle automation platform, and Era is a database-as-a-service solution - none handle VM-to-VM network segmentation.
