LAS
VEGAS, June 19, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Pure
Storage//Accelerate - Pure Storage®
(NYSE:PSTG), the IT pioneer that delivers the world's most advanced
data storage technologies and services, today announced new
capabilities in the Pure Storage platform that are changing the
game for how IT and business leaders can radically improve their
ability to deploy AI, improve cyber resilience, and modernize their
applications.
The Pure Storage platform delivers agility and risk reduction to
organizations with a simple, consistent storage platform and an
as-a-service experience for the broadest set of use cases across
on-premises, public cloud, and hosted environments. At the heart of
the platform, the often imitated but never duplicated
Evergreen® architecture brings continuous and
non-disruptive upgrades, helping enterprises adapt to dynamic
business environments. With the industry's record number of
concurrent SLAs, customers get the reliability, performance, and
sustainability their business requires.
"Pure is redefining enterprise storage with a single, unified
data storage platform that can address virtually all enterprise
storage needs including the most pressing challenges and
opportunities IT leaders face today, like AI and cyber resilience.
The Pure Storage platform delivers unparalleled consistency,
resilience, and SLA-guaranteed data storage services, reducing
costs and uncertainty in an increasingly complex business
landscape." — Charles Giancarlo,
Chairman and CEO, Pure Storage
Today, Pure Storage announced new innovations in the platform
including:
- First-of-its-Kind Storage Automation: Pure Fusion™
unifies arrays and optimizes storage pools on the fly across
structured and unstructured data, on-premises, and in the cloud.
Now fully embedded into the Purity operating environment designed
to continually get better over time via non-disruptive upgrades,
the next generation Pure Fusion will be available across the entire
Pure Storage platform to all global customers.
- Industry-First Generative AI Copilot for Storage:
Extending Pure Storage's leadership position as the innovator in
simplicity, the first AI copilot for storage represents a radically
new way to manage and protect data using natural language. This
leverages data insights from tens of thousands of Pure Storage
customers to guide storage teams through every step of
investigating complex performance and management issues and staying
ahead of security incidents.
Accelerating AI Success in the Enterprise with the Pure
Storage Platform
In the new Innovation Race survey of 1,500 global CIOs and
decision makers commissioned by Pure Storage, nearly all
respondents (98%) state that their organization's data
infrastructure must improve to support initiatives like AI. AI is
evolving so rapidly that IT is struggling to keep up, much less
predict what's next. Companies large and small are realizing that
they are locked into inflexible storage architectures lacking
enterprise-grade reliability, unable to resize or upgrade
performance without complex and risky infrastructure planning.
Pure Storage is introducing new innovations in the platform that
help businesses accelerate successful AI deployments today, and
future proof for tomorrow. The Pure Storage platform empowers
organizations to unlock the value of their data with AI, while
delivering agility to instantly scale capacity and performance up
and down independently, without disruption.
- New Evergreen//One™ for AI - First Purpose-Built AI Storage
as-a-Service: Provides guaranteed storage performance for GPUs
to support training, inference, and HPC workloads, extending Pure
Storage's leadership position for capacity subscriptions and
introduces the ability to purchase based on dynamic performance and
throughput needs. The new SLA uniquely delivers the performance
needed and eliminates the need for planning or overbuying by paying
for throughput performance.
- Secure Application Workspaces with Fine-Grained Access
Controls: Combines Kubernetes container management, secure
multi-tenancy, and policy governance tools to enable advanced data
integrations between enterprise mission-critical data and AI
clusters. This makes storage infrastructure transparent to
application owners, who gain fully automated access to AI
innovation without sacrificing security, independence, or
control.
Pure to Expand and Accelerate Enterprise Adoption of AI with
Planned NVIDIA DGX SuperPOD Certification
Pure Storage was among the first enterprise storage vendors to
work with NVIDIA to achieve NVIDIA DGX BasePOD certification and
NVIDIA OVX validation. Building upon this pioneering collaboration
for AI-ready infrastructure, Pure expects to be a certified storage
solution for NVIDIA DGX SuperPOD by the end of 2024.
Pure Storage's Ethernet-based storage solution simplifies the
integration and deployment of large scale training and inference
and helps democratize AI to enterprises that are eager to
accelerate their AI initiatives. Pure's industry-leading energy
efficiency, consuming up to 85% less energy than alternative
all-flash storage solutions, can help customers overcome data
center power constraints in large AI clusters.
"Enterprises adopting AI need storage performance and
flexibility as they architect their infrastructure to address AI
workloads at scale. Pure Storage's certification with the NVIDIA
DGX and OVX platforms helps deliver highly-performant solutions for
customers at every stage of their AI journey." –
Charlie Boyle, Vice President of DGX
Platform, NVIDIA
