Storage Built for Modern Data-centric Organizations
FlashBlade came to market with a vision of revolutionizing scale-out file and object workloads. Unstructured data storage doesn’t need to be restricted to secondary workloads and held back by the limitations of traditional disk and hybrid storage arrays. As organizations become more and more data centric and unstructured data continues to grow at an exceptional rate, efficient and strategic utilization of this data has become a key priority for organizations. FlashBlade is built differently than other storage solutions to help customers meet this challenge.
The architecture of FlashBlade allows it to deliver multi-dimensional performance for any unstructured data workload. It is designed to be flexible with the longevity to scale, lasting through different generations of hardware, evolving and improving non-disruptively over time through the power of our Evergreen technology. Pure Evergreen™ enables customers to eliminate painful migrations and adapt the capacity and performance of their storage system as their business requirements change. FlashBlade//S with Evergreen//Forever provides customers a future-proof storage platform that’s ever modern and ever agile and delivers unmatched investment protection for their organizations.
FlashBlade’s vision for the future and this focus on innovation has allowed it to stay ahead of the curve on many key customer requirements. The best example of this is FlashBlade’s industry-leading results when it comes to environmental sustainability and energy efficiency. Rising energy costs, regulatory concerns, and climate change are making environmental, social, and governance (ESG) an important consideration for organizations. Thanks to FlashBlade’s unique architecture and the power of Evergreen, organizations can partner with Pure Storage to deploy the most sustainable and energy-efficient solutions in the market.
