What makes storage and infrastructure monitoring and management a top priority across all enterprise organizations? Simple: businesses today are generating data at unprecedented rates. Data is at the center of the digital transformation era. Clear visibility and seamless management of data are key for businesses to succeed and stay ahead of the curve. IT teams are forced to continually improve operational efficiency, reduce costs, and respond faster to business needs. To resolve this problem, we thought differently and developed a cloud-based intelligent data storage and management solution: Pure1. Some organizations are disconnected from the cloud as a result of strict metadata sovereignty requirements. As a result, these organizations miss out on the single pane of glass experience in tools like Pure1® and the goodness of cloud-based infrastructure management and resource optimization. Most available on-premises solutions do not deliver a clear picture of performance issues across the infrastructure. IT teams are required to spend countless hours identifying problems using fragmented and siloed point solutions which often are cumbersome and expensive to manage and maintain. You need a modern data management platform to transform your IT teams into superheroes and drive innovation. Today, we are announcing a brand-new product, Pure1® Unplugged, in the Pure1® family.
