At its recent Pure Accelerate event, Pure Storage introduced new features aimed at meeting the fast-changing needs of enterprise AI. These updates are designed to enhance the AI-enabled enterprise by using AI to provide a more robust and simple experience and by delivering the performance needed for modern AI workloads.
Pure Fusion: AI-Powered Storage Management
One of the standout innovations is Pure Fusion, a first-of-its-kind storage automation solution. Pure Fusion combines storage arrays and optimizes storage pools for both structured and unstructured data, whether on-premises or in the cloud. Fully integrated into the Purity operating environment, this next-generation technology ensures continuous improvement through non-disruptive upgrades and is available globally.
Generative AI Copilot for Storage
Pure Storage also introduced the industry’s first Generative AI Copilot for Storage. This AI-driven tool uses insights from thousands of Pure Storage customers to offer a new way to manage and protect data using natural language. It helps storage teams tackle complex performance and management issues and addresses security incidents proactively.
AI Copilot for Storage
The Pure Storage AI Copilot is an intelligent assistant within the Pure Storage platform. It uses insights from many deployed systems to streamline storage management tasks. Users can interact with the AI Copilot using natural language queries, enabling storage administrators and IT teams to quickly get detailed assessments, actionable recommendations, and security policy benchmarks.
Evergreen//One for AI: Storage for AI Workloads
Evergreen//One for AI is Pure Storage’s solution for managing storage infrastructure for AI workloads. It provides a purpose-built AI storage-as-a-service solution and guarantees the necessary performance for GPU-intensive tasks like training, inference, and high-performance computing.
