Nutanix Prism Central – Resource Calculator

Estimates the resource requirements (vCPU / RAM / Storage) of a Prism Central instance based on the size of the managed environment and enabled features.

Note: All values are rough estimates based on Nutanix KB-16847 ("Minimum Additional Resource requirements for each feature or Portfolio services enabled on PC", as of July 2026) and are intended for rough initial planning only. For a binding, support-eligible sizing recommendation, always use the official Nutanix Sizer or the current Prism Central Sizing Guide.
