Enterprise Data Cloud: Managing Data, Not Just Storage
August 6 | Register Now Infrastructure teams have always managed applications. AI requires them to manage data. That's a different challenge, and most platforms weren't built for it. The Enterprise Data Cloud architecture from Everpure bridges that gap, bringing data intelligence into the same platform infrastructure teams already manage, so infrastructure and data teams are finally working from a single, unified view. In this session, we'll dig into what it means to manage a platform built for both operational performance and AI readiness, and the changes when infrastructure can finally gain visibility into its data, not just storage. Key takeaways: Why the shift from application-centric to data-first infrastructure changes how platforms need to be managed How Everpure brings data intelligence into the operational layer without adding tools, teams, or complexity What shared visibility across infrastructure and data teams actually unlocks for AI initiatives How to manage a platform that serves every workload, from archive to AI Register Now!
The Containers Must Flow: Extending Kubernetes Principles to Your Data
July 7 | Register Now! Kubernetes (K8s) sits at the center of the known universe, steering the massive shift from legacy systems to next-generation applications and modern virtualization. In this vast desert of infrastructure, one truth remains absolute: they who control the data layer control the universe. For July 2026, your Kwisatz Haderach of hosts, Andrew Miller, invites mentat James McShane to explore these tectonic shifts—and why Portworx® is even more vital today than 5+ years ago when acquired by Everpure, formerly Pure Storage®, to be the ultimate k8s data layer. Here’s what we'll traverse on our journey: The path of the mentat James: From large-scale virtualization to massive K8s clusters, and even piloting K8s on autonomous drones (the ultimate hunter-seekers). The weirding way of modern tech: the explosion of new K8s developments with a focus on KubeVirt and how it’s reshaping modern virtualization trends. The litany against data loss: Core storage needs in K8s environments, the foundational Portworx design principles built to survive them, and why they matter when the sandworms of downtime strike. The voice of Portworx: New capabilities designed to conquer KubeVirt/VMware migrations, establish unified control planes, and shift your focus from rigid mechanics to pure intent (Imperative vs. Declarative)--dare we say, bending the infrastructure to your will.

May 19 | Register Now! Continuing from the April Coffee Break theme of looking at practical ways to handle global supply chain availability and pricing challenges, host Andrew Miller invites Nathan Wood (Director for Cloud and Data Services) to the conversation. Getting Nathan’s take is like calling your “prepper friend” for advice on the best generator for your house before a hurricane. Building off the April Storage as a Service discussion, we’ll take a cloud focus and wander through: Cloud dynamics in an era of scarcity, allocation, pricing drama, and more. Classic value amplified - call it data reduction or call it FinOps, there’s new value from classic capabilities (especially built in differentiated ways). Everpure Cloud design principles - the cloud wasn’t built for certain requirements. That’s why we built Everpure Cloud (and AWS and Azure wanted us to). Everpure Cloud updates - not only a name change but additional capabilities since you might have last looked when it was called “Cloud Block Store” or “Pure Storage Cloud.” One lucky attendee will win a Home Office premium set, which includes a Yeti mug and a Qi Wireless Charger (approx. value $150).
