At Pure we are looking to make meaningful changes and bring value to the markets we serve. While our technology is second-to-none, we know that business problems in healthcare aren't always solved by throwing technology at it alone. If you are able to join us at our customer event: Accelerate you will notice we have a dedicated Healthcare day. We will be delivering high-impact, reasonable length sessions, detailing out some exciting new solutions and announcements for our healthcare customers. One of our solutions is EvergreenOne// Medical imaging (PACS/VNA). This solution is truly unique in the market in the way it solves for data management while also delivering predictable pricing. Billed "Per Study" we lock in a price for you, for up to 10-years and take on the risk of variability in study size growth, performance, privacy, and reliability. Organizations seemingly fall into two camps. Either they have moved to a "cloud-like" billing model(monthly cost per TB consumed), or continue capital purchase where you guess your next 5 years capacity needs and performance needs for your PACS/VNA data. Historically there are 3 data needs to address for your organizations PACS/VNA deployment: Burning through OpEx budget since every month your PACS/VNA data grows larger Running out of storage sooner (under provisioning) or overpaying ( over provisioning) with CapEx purchase Performance requirements change ( e.g. running 10 AI algorithms while servicing the human clinicians off the same data platform, simultaneously) With our EvergreenOne//Medical Imaging solution, we believe we have to answer to solve for all 3 above. If youll be able to join us at Accelerate in June, you will be the first to hear, otherwise stay tuned for our public announcement happening just after Accelerate ends.32Views1like0CommentsFlashCrew London & Glasgow May/June 2025 !!!!
