Pure Storage Leads the Industry with New Services and Software to Further Expand its Vision of the Modern Data Experience

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., Sept. 28, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Pure Storage^® (NYSE: PSTG), the IT pioneer that delivers storage as-a-service in a multi-cloud world, today unveiled a significant progression of the company vision of modernizing how customers work with data - by modernizing infrastructure, operations, and applications. Today's announcements bring infrastructure and applications closer together by enabling cloud-like automation and delivery of storage:

• Pure Fusion™, a self-service, autonomous storage-as-code platform built for limitless scale, lets customers bring the cloud operating model anywhere and run, operate, and consume traditional storage like a cloud service.
• Portworx Data Services, the industry's first Database-as-a-Service platform for Kubernetes, lets DevOps engineers deploy a managed, production-grade data service with the click of a button. This gives software developers access to the database applications they need to build on, without needing to become experts.

"Since our founding, Pure has delivered simplicity and reliability at scale - what organizations need more than ever as they increasingly adopt cloud native architectures and modern applications like AI/ML and advanced analytics. Our new software innovations further our goal of making infrastructure invisible to developers, using it as simple as calling an API, and delivering it as a service." -- Charles Giancarlo, Chairman and CEO, Pure Storage

Pure is meeting the demands of modern business by making data infrastructure fast to deploy, provision, and manage. With Pure, infrastructure is automated, API-driven, and transparent, and application developers are accelerated with access to the fully-integrated and deployment-ready database tools they need.

"IT teams and their consumers have evolved into 'on demand' cultures and with the shift to cloud and as-a-Service, speed and agility have become paramount. Storage needs to keep up with end users expectations. This means making the storage itself invisible, allowing users to easily consume services they need and recognize like capacity, copy creation, and recovery." -- Eric Burgener, Research Vice President, Enterprise Infrastructure Practice, IDC

Pure Fusion

Announced today, Pure Fusion brings the cloud operating model anywhere with a new self-service, autonomous storage environment built for limitless scale that marries the best of enterprise storage with the agility and scalability of the cloud. With on-demand consumption and back-end provisioning, organizations can deliver a new scale-out storage model that unifies arrays and optimizes storage pools on the fly. End users will be able to rapidly consume volumes, file systems, and advanced data services like replication without waiting for back-end manual work, making hardware truly invisible. Pure Fusion will allow organizations to scale seamlessly, integrating first with FlashArray//X, FlashArray//C, and Pure Cloud Block Store, with future integrations planned with FlashBlade and Portworx. Pure Fusion, coupled with the powerful Pure portfolio, will take performance, density, and data availability to new levels.
