Pure Storage has announced its participation in the 43rd edition […]

“FlashArray//XL is a clear shot across the bow of legacy storage vendors by combining high-end scale of a true enterprise-class array with the scale-out agility of the cloud operating model,” says Shawn Hansen.

The updates to the flagship Purity software for FlashBlade and FlashArray accelerate Windows applications, deliver ransomware protection across file, block and native cloud-based apps, and make hybrid storage for both departmental and data center workloads.

Pure also announced the availability of the new Pure WaveMakers program to reward Pure’s partners who are leaders in solution selling, training and sales.

Together, the two companies deliver the platforms that customers need to virtualize their environments, quickly consolidate workloads, host mission-critical applications, and accelerate application modernization with persistent storage for containers on-premises or in the cloud.
