Increased Adoption of Pure as-a-Service Flexible Consumption Program by Pure Storage

Pure Storage, Inc. said customers are driving a wave of adoption of its Pure as-a-Service flexible consumption program, designed to help organizations unlock the strategic potential of data, respond in near real-time to shifting infrastructure requirements, and meet new business challenges.

Pure as-a-Service is a utility for which you’re billed based on actual consumption
Pure customers across industries who want cloud economics and cloud operations on-premises have adopted Pure as-a-Service – enabling them to consume additional storage capacity on-demand with little risk and a predictable pricing model. For example, Hospital Sisters Health Systems, Citizen Potawatomi Nation and service provider TeraGo Networks Inc. have all found flexible solutions that fit their organizations’ evolving needs with Pure as-a-Service.

Marking its second anniversary, Pure as-a-Service offers the entire firm’s product portfolio in locations that suit the needs of businesses, supporting storage on-premises, in colocation and service provider facilities, and in the public cloud by leveraging company’s Cloud Block Store. Regardless of what is or where it is consumed, the service provides a single unified subscription and predictable per-unit costs. This offers financial and operational flexibility to customers via policy-based management and self-service options, creating the customer experience that is expected by enterprises familiar with cloud solutions.

Pure as-a-Service empowers IT businesses to rethink how they spend – paying only for what an organization needs and never over-provisioning. Since it encompasses firm’s FlashArray and FashBlade platforms, customers can use OPEX* budgets to consume block, file and object storage services deployed anywhere – including in the public cloud via Cloud Block Store. 

“With the shifting infrastructure demands brought on by the rapid increase in remote work, now more than ever customers are looking for flexibility, simplicity and reliability from their infrastructure vendors,” said Rob Walters, VP and GM of storage as-a-service, Pure. “Pure as-a-Service delivers the dynamic consumption model and experience that fits their evolving needs.“

The Pure as-a-Service platform transforms an enterprise storage environment into an efficient storage utility. As an industry storage as-a-service offering from a major vendor, it offers Pure1 management tools to enable organizations to manage an unified hybrid cloud storage environment backed by firm’s peerless customer support – all through a single subscription.
