Pure Storage Cloud: Run It Your Way or Fully Managed
November 6 | Register Now! Cloud shouldn't limit your options regardless if it's private, public, or hybrid. It's your data. It should be your choice to move it, and it should be your choice to determine where your workloads should run. See how Pure Storage Cloud gives you the freedom to choose your management model—customer-managed services that let you run it your way to a completely seamless, fully managed solution. Join us as we explore the Pure Storage Cloud portfolio, which brings the performance and agility of Pure Storage everywhere—giving you the power to choose. This session will explore: Efficient storage options for your workloads, no matter where they run The freedom that Pure Storage gives you for workload mobility The latest options for Pure Storage to do the heavy lifting in the public cloud Register Now!Pure Cloud Block Store is now Pure Storage Cloud Dedicated (PSC Dedicated)
Pure Storage Cloud Dedicated: Name Change, Same Enterprise-Grade Experience Pure Storage Cloud is an enterprise-grade block storage delivered as a service in the public cloud. It extends the data services and evergreen architecture of the Purity operating system and can be deployed in: Azure as a fully managed native service or a customer-managed service integrated with Azure VMware Solution (AVS) AWS as a customer-managed service integrated with Elastic VMware Service (EVS) What’s New? Pure Cloud Block Store, the customer-managed service, is being renamed Pure Storage Cloud Dedicated (PSC Dedicated). This change reflects its integration into the Pure Storage Cloud family and alignment with the Enterprise Data Cloud strategy. What’s Not Changing? Everything That Matters Your experience, performance, and features remain the same. Pure Storage Cloud Dedicated continues to provide: Enterprise Data Services: Purity software in Azure and AWS, with data reduction, thin provisioning, and snapshots. Cost Efficiency: Optimized storage usage and reduced footprint through data reduction. Reliability & Resilience: Built-in redundancy, high availability, and cyber resilience. Hybrid & Multi-Cloud Mobility: Consistent APIs and replication across FlashArrays and PSC Dedicated for migration, DR, and data mobility. Disaster Recovery & Backup: Asynchronous and near-synchronous replication, plus snapshots for cost-effective backup and rapid recovery. VMware Workload Support: Enterprise-grade storage for VMware in AVS and EVS environments. Why This Matters The shift from Pure Cloud Block Store to Pure Storage Cloud Dedicated unifies offerings under the Pure Storage Cloud umbrella while advancing the broader Enterprise Data Cloud strategy.Azure lovers, you'll like this one...

Together with vjirovsky we hosted a podcast episode where we discussed CBS on Azure architecture and best practices. Have a listen here: https://soundcloud.com/user-917746545/purely-cloud-guest-series-cbs-on-azure-technical-deep-dive-and-deployment-best-practicesUse CBS as persistent storage on AKS via Portworx CSI driver
Hi all, with the recent version of Portworx CSI driver (v25.4.0) you can mount a persistent block volume on CBS into your containers on Kubernetes and utilize all features and benefits of CBS. Sharing my recent blog post, how to set it up on Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS): https://blog.vjirovsky.cz/portworx-csi-with-aks-with-cbs/"What would you say your virtualization does here?"
July 10 | Register Now! If the virtualization landscape has you feeling like you’re stuck in a meeting about TPS reports with eight different bosses, you’re not alone. With uncertainty around VMware’s future, many IT leaders are being asked what they’re doing with their virtualization strategy. Join this satirical but serious Tech Talk as we dust off the old “jump to conclusions” mat to explore the four most common “conclusions” enterprises are being asked to evaluate. We’ll cover: Staying on VMware - Sticking with the familiar, despite the licensing and support changes. Choosing a new hypervisor - Considering alternatives like Proxmox or AHV and their tradeoffs. Moving to the cloud - Running your VMs on hyperscale infrastructure like AWS or Azure. Modernizing with KubeVirt - Embracing a Kubernetes-native model that supports both VMs and containers.
