Everpure Recognized as A Leader in the 2026 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Infrastructure Platform Consumption Services

Position as a Leader reflects Everpure's Ability to Execute and Completeness of Vision

SANTA CLARA, Calif., Sept. 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Everpure (NYSE: P), the company revolutionizing storage and data management, today announced it has been recognized as a Leader in the Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Infrastructure Platform Consumption Services for the second year in a row¹. This year, Everpure was positioned highest in Execution and furthest in Vision.

Everpure believes the recognition marks the company's best performance to date, demonstrating strong momentum as enterprise demand accelerates for platform-centric, outcome-based infrastructure models.

"Customers need the flexibility to build their infrastructure strategy around their businesses, and not the other way around," said Prakash Darji, General Manager, Digital Experience, Everpure. "The Everpure Platform focuses on SLA based outcomes that helps customers simplify operations, improve efficiency, and get more value from their infrastructure and data."

According to the Gartner report, "The primary role of IPCS is to provide scalable, platform-managed infrastructure for hybrid-cloud environments, enabling organizations to shift from capital expenditure and in-house management toward a consumption-based operating model. This approach allows IT operations to focus on managing workloads rather than physical hardware, with vendors assuming responsibility and risk management for infrastructure performance and reliability. IPCS delivers benefits such as cost optimization, improved productivity, enhanced cyber resilience and accelerated innovation — driven by automation, continuous workload optimization and product-centric service features.²"

Everpure believes its positioning validates a broader industry shift toward this model. The infrastructure landscape is evolving as enterprises manage increasingly distributed environments, growing AI workloads, and rising demands for cyber resilience and operational efficiency. The Everpure Platform provides a unified architecture and operating model designed to simplify how organizations manage data and infrastructure across on-premises, cloud, and hybrid environments.

Guided by its Data Primacy vision, Everpure helps organizations manage data as a trusted asset through a global data plane and intelligent control plane. Recent innovations include:

• Everpure Data Intelligence™: Makes fragmented data usable for AI by discovering, classifying, contextualizing, and governing data at the source across Everpure, cloud, SaaS, and third-party environments.
• Enterprise Data Cloud Enhancements: Unifies data, policy, and semantics across hybrid estates to streamline operations and enforce consistent governance.
• AI Data Stream: Automates data discovery, preparation, and delivery pipelines, making real-time information immediately accessible to AI applications.
• Cyber Resilience Innovations: Strengthens protection and speeds recovery from cyber threats to ensure continuous business resilience.

Everpure believes its recognition in the 2026 Gartner Magic Quadrant reflects the growing importance of a platform-based approach to infrastructure consumption. By combining infrastructure, data management, intelligent automation, and flexible consumption within a unified platform, Everpure helps organizations reduce operational complexity while improving resilience, governance, and asset productivity.
