SANTA CLARA, Calif., Oct. 11, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Pure Storage® (NYSE: PSTG), the IT pioneer that delivers the world’s most advanced data storage technology and services, today announced it has been positioned by Gartner® as a Leader in the Magic Quadrant™ for File and Object Storage Platforms for both its Completeness of Vision and Ability to Execute, in the rapidly growing storage market for unstructured data.
Industry Significance:
The proliferation of technologies and emerging trends like AI, analytics, and the Internet of Things has driven a surge in file and object data. Traditional storage solutions, particularly legacy file systems, have become increasingly complex, adding rigidity and risk. This complexity is further exacerbated by rising cyberthreats and energy consumption concerns. Focusing on single-purpose, siloed solutions has left organizations struggling to meet the dynamic demands of modern workloads, resulting in inefficiencies and outdated refresh cycles.
To navigate these challenges, organizations require a storage platform that delivers all-flash performance, scalability, and operational simplicity, while also addressing security vulnerabilities and minimizing energy usage.
Platform Momentum:
With unmatched agility and risk reduction, Pure Storage delivers a simple and consistent unified storage platform and flexible as-a-service experience for the broadest range of use cases – from on-premises to the public cloud to hosted environments. Central to the platform, the often imitated but never duplicated Evergreen® architecture ensures continuous, non-disruptive upgrades, enabling enterprises to quickly adapt in today’s dynamic business landscape. With the industry’s most comprehensive set of concurrent SLAs, customers get the reliability, performance, and energy efficiency required to modernize their businesses.

Built on machine learning models running to identify unusual anomalous behavior, Pure Storage enables customers to analyze their environments with historical data for anomalous patterns based on heuristics of performance as well as user context on how storage is used. Leveraging this capability, customers can identify the last known good snapshot copy to mitigate operational impact by quickly identifying recovery point targets to restore data, reducing risk and guesswork.Cyber Recovery and Resilience SLA: Building on the first-of-its-kind ransomware recovery SLA, Evergreen//One™ now includes disaster recovery scenarios.
