Modernizing data storage is no longer a priority as IT leaders prioritize cloud, mobile, and edge computing solutions. Currently, more than 80% of the data stored in data centers resides on traditional solutions such as magnetic hard disks. But Pure Storage’s flash-optimized systems unlock hidden opportunities for data storage. This reduces energy consumption by up to 85 percent and reduces data center energy by 20 percent, explains Kathy Mulvaney, Pure Storage’s global head of environmental, social and governance initiatives.
This technology advancement comes at a time when it can help businesses manage operational and transactional data. Organizations often run out of storage space or data center space, are unable to meet service level agreements, or struggle to balance budgets amid rising maintenance and energy costs. there is.
Pure Storage’s flash-optimized systems are already energy-optimized. Consumes 2 to 5 times less power and space than competitive solid state drive systems, and 5 to 10 times less than hard disk systems. Don Kirouac, technical lead for product sustainability in his CTO office at Pure Storage, says this also simplifies upgrade cycles that can be disruptive and expensive.
Traditional storage solutions generate electronic waste that can disrupt access to applications for weeks or months, impacting business continuity. Pure Storage’s evergreen storage architecture provides an energy-efficient, flexible, and future-proof alternative.
