Pure Storage, Kioxia Collaborate on Next-Gen Hyperscale Storage

Pure Storage®, an advanced data storage solutions company, has announced a strategic collaboration with Kioxia Corporation, a global memory solutions brand, to develop innovative storage technology tailored for hyperscale environments. This partnership aims to address the growing demand for scalable, high-performance, and energy-efficient storage infrastructure.

Traditional storage solutions, such as hard disk drives (HDDs), struggle to meet the requirements of hyperscale environments due to their limited speed, scalability, reliability, and high power consumption. These limitations create challenges in managing the massive data volumes generated in hyperscale data centers, introducing latency, bandwidth issues, and inefficiencies.

The collaboration between Pure Storage and Kioxia introduces a groundbreaking data storage platform designed to overcome these challenges. By leveraging Pure Storage’s expertise in data storage platforms and Kioxia’s advanced QLC flash memory technology, the new solution offers hyperscalers the ability to handle data-intensive workloads with unparalleled speed and efficiency.

This joint effort delivers significant benefits, including ultra-fast, low-latency performance for handling massive data loads, optimized storage costs to reduce the total cost of ownership (TCO), and a sustainable approach that minimizes energy consumption and physical hardware waste. The platform’s ability to scale seamlessly ensures it meets the evolving needs of hyperscale environments while reducing operational costs and supporting more eco-friendly data center operations.

Bill Cerreta, GM of Hyperscale at Pure Storage, emphasized the importance of this collaboration: “Partnering with Kioxia allows us to unlock the full potential of all-flash storage for hyperscale environments. By combining Pure Storage’s innovations with Kioxia’s cutting-edge technology, we’re enabling hyperscalers to manage data with unmatched speed, efficiency, and reliability.”

Caesar Ichimura, Chief Marketing Officer at Kioxia Corporation, added: “This partnership represents a major milestone in hyperscale storage innovation. With data volumes growing at unprecedented rates, our all-flash technology ensures high performance while lowering operational costs and complexity. Together with Pure Storage, we’re addressing the unique challenges of hyperscale environments and paving the way for the future of data storage.”

The collaboration between Pure Storage and Kioxia marks a significant advancement in the storage industry, delivering solutions that empower hyperscalers to scale operations efficiently while meeting sustainability goals. As data continues to grow at an exponential pace, this partnership sets a new standard for the future of hyperscale storage.
