You Could Have All This Observability! A Live Walkthrough of Pure1.
July 8th | Register Now! Imagine having full observability into your storage fleet with live insights, anomaly detection, and easy, fleet-wide management. But, there’s a plot twist! It’s all included with Pure Storage. Join us for a live walkthrough of Pure1®. You'll see firsthand how monitoring, intelligent planning, and proactive management can simplify your day-to-day operations and prepare you for what’s next. After some history of Pure 1 and unpacking the “nothing to install” approach, we’ll walk through common, customer day-to-day scenarios and how Pure1 helps with: Logs - Never upload them again. Planning performance and/or capacity growth yourself based on historical data at your finger tips. Modeling out new workloads in real time. VM-level visibility and container integration. Reporting on data protection, security, and sustainability/energy posture. This month host Andrew Miller welcomes back Matt Bradford—the driving force behind Pure360 for a LIVE DEMO you don’t want to miss. We’ll close with what’s new in Pure1 (hint: this may cover some upcoming announcements at Pure//Accelerate®). Register Now!FREE BEER FOR ALL!!! Now That I Have Your Attention, Let's Talk About Purity Updates.
WAIT WAIT WAIT - don't leave yet because of my free beer tomfoolery....hear me out. Listen, we get it. Storage OS updates are historically the LAST thing you ever want to consider for your already impossibly thin maintenance windows. And, we all know NOBODY ever grew up saying, "When I get older, I want to manage enterprise storage for its rock and roll lifestyle." 😀 But - hear me out. Any past pain, suffering, or heavy drinking you may have taken on during previous OS updates with other legacy vendors has been minimized or even flat out eliminated by how we handle updating Purity for FlashArray and FlashBlade. We offer two tracks you can leverage for making them happen by either working directly with support for a white glove update experience where they do all the work remotely, or you can complete them via the Self Support Update (SSU) feature built into Pure1. We encourage regular Purity updates for two reasons: Performance. stability and security improvements...obviously New feature adoption. Want Fusion 2.0? Want the ability to deliver NFS/SMB shares on your FlashArray? These are bundled into your Purity updates and require no additional licensing costs to adopt if you want them. Think of them as over the air feature updates that are all the rage for EVs... For now, take a quick look at the Purity version you are running. If you haven't updated it in a year or two (which many of you probably haven't), you're missing out on being able to squeeze extra value out of your storage. I will be posting some supporting demos and other materials to help you visualize the process in the coming month or so. I would LOVE any feedback from the community, good or bad, on current or past experiences with our updating experience...through it all we can get more boats to rise with the tide! Stay tuned! DP
