Pure Storage at MWC Barcelona 2026: Powering Telco-grade AI and Data Innovation

At MWC Barcelona 2026, March 2-5, Pure Storage is meeting telecom leaders where the future of networks is being built: at the intersection of cloud-native infrastructures, analytics, and AI. Join us in Hall 2.1, Meeting Room A51 at Fira Gran Via in Barcelona, Spain, to see how a modern data platform can transform the way your network runs, operates, and innovates.

Your network runs on data. It’s time your data infrastructure was built specifically for it.

Why Modern Telco Networks Need a New Kind of Data Platform

Telecom providers are under pressure to simultaneously:

• Modernize 5G and cloud-native cores
• Launch new data-driven services and AI use cases
• Reduce power, space, and operational complexity

Every one of these initiatives depends on the same foundation: a data platform that can handle telco-scale performance, availability, and efficiency, without adding more silos or operational overhead.

That’s what Pure Storage is focused on delivering at MWC Barcelona 2026: a telco-grade, cloud-era platform that supports your most critical workloads (CNFs, analytics, and AI) with consistent, predictable performance and automation from edge to core to cloud.

What You’ll See from Pure Storage at MWC Barcelona 2026

At MWC, we’re showcasing how Pure Storage helps telcos rethink their data infrastructure with a focus on performance, simplicity, and sustainability.

A Telco-grade, Cloud-era Platform for CNFs, Analytics, and AI

The Pure Storage data platform is designed for cloud-native environments and high-value, data-intensive workloads. That means:

• A consistent, high-performance foundation for cloud-native network functions (CNFs)
• A unified platform for analytics and AI that can handle diverse data types and parallel workloads at scale
• Automation that simplifies operations so teams can focus on services, not storage management

This is about giving network and IT teams an infrastructure that keeps up with modern software, not the other way around.

All-flash, Energy-efficient Storage Built for Automation

Power and space constraints are now strategic issues for telcos. Pure Storage is helping operators address this by delivering all-flash, energy-efficient storage that is:

• Designed for full automation, with API-first management and fleet-wide observability
• Simple to scale non-disruptively as data and AI requirements grow
• Built to dramatically reduce energy consumption and footprint, freeing up budget and data center capacity for new services and GPU-intensive workloads

Pure Storage has been recognized as A Leader in the Gartner^® Magic Quadrant™ for 12 years in a row, reflecting our continued focus on innovation and operational simplicity for customers around the world.

Seamless Scalability from Edge to Cloud

Networks don’t live in one place, and neither does your data. From central offices and core data centers to regional sites and public cloud, Pure Storage enables:

• Seamless scalability to handle unpredictable growth in traffic, subscribers, and data sets
• A consistent operational model across environments to reduce complexity and risk
• A future-ready foundation for emerging AI and analytics use cases that depend on low-latency, high-throughput data access at scale

Why Leading Telcos Run on Pure Storage

Telcos globally are already using Pure Storage to modernize their infrastructure and prepare for the next era of AI-driven services. The world’s leading telecom providers rely on Pure Storage to support mission-critical workloads with a modern, sustainable data platform.

Customers such as Virgin Media O2, KPN, and KDDI are leveraging Pure Storage to:

• Cut costs by consolidating onto high-density, energy-efficient all-flash platforms
• Boost performance and resilience for network, IT, and data workloads
• Modernize infrastructure with scalable, cloud-era designs that reduce operational complexity and support new AI and analytics initiatives

Whether your priority is network modernization, AI operations, customer experience, or sustainability, the common denominator is data. And the infrastructure that powers it.

Meet Pure Storage 1:1 at MWC Barcelona 2026

Throughout MWC Barcelona 2026, Pure Storage will be hosting 1:1 executive and technical meetings in our on-site meeting room to dive deep into your specific priorities, whether that’s:

• Building an AI-ready data platform for network and IT
• Simplifying CNF rollouts and cloud-native transformation
• Reducing power, space, and lifecycle costs in your data centers
• Unifying data services from edge to cloud for analytics and AI
