Thanks for Joining the INAUGURAL Ask Us Everything for Fusion
Hello Pure Community! Thanks a TON to everybody who tuned in for the Fusion Ask Us Everything session this morning. We had a blast hosting it, and were stoked to see all the questions that were sent in...it was great to see everybody is looking at Fusion's capabilities and how it can add value to their array fleet management. MUCHO thanks to jd and RichBarlow for navigating through all the questions and talking about it all. Also, BIG SHOUTOUT to gcarl for parachuting in and answering some Federal questions! Be sure to join us next month for the next one, which will cover Purity upgrades - we are looking forward to a spirited discussion that will convince even the biggest skeptic that upgrading your Pure array is not like the scary old days of upgrading legacy storage. Until then, enjoy this awesome meme of a skateboarding possum. See you in September! DP

💡Technology Tip Thursday💡: A Trip Back to the First Website!
💡 Technology Tip Thursday 💡 is finally here again! Today we have another internet milestone that will for sure stir up some nostalgic moments of the past. Did you know that this month in 1991, the World Wide Web officially became public? On August 6, British computer scientist Tim Berners-Lee published the first-ever website while working at CERN, a physics lab in Switzerland. He shared his "WorldWideWeb" project on an internet newsgroup, inviting collaborators and providing instructions on how to use it. This key moment transformed the internet from a closed network of linked computers into an open, accessible system of information, laying the foundation for the web we know today. Interesting right? So now we want to ask you: What’s one of the first websites that really captivated you? Share it on the comments below and make sure to hype up your fellow community members’ answers as well! We can’t wait to hear what you’ve all got!

FlashArray//XL… LEGO edition!
The creativity of our marketing department is something special but this latest project from Canada crew Sangeeta and Principal Technologist Dan might just be my favorite. The build quality is exceptional and there are more than a few little hidden surprises; like the NFC chip hiding under the Pure logo. Looks just like a miniature version of our XL shipping box. Includes a removable controller and bezel. Incredible detail on the printed bricks. Fit for every datacenter, large or small. FlashArray//XL LEGO edition.
