2021: Combination of FlashArray//XL technology with Pure Fusion

On December 9, 2021, a Pure Storage IT pioneer company in the industry that provides SHD as a service (storage as-a-service) multicloudy in the world introduced the FlashArray//XL solution in the FlashArray family. It is designed for important enterprise Platinum applications -  from big to and databases konteynerizovanny cloudy applications. FlashArray//XL provides fairly high performance, scalability, and IOPS growth by information about 80%.

Business is continuously accelerating, and demand for applications can grow instantly. IT departments have only a few hours, not months, to deploy current applications. Previously, companies scaled top-level applications with legacy technologies that were difficult to manage, increased power consumption, and required infrastructure upgrades.

The emergence of FlashArray//XL and the stand-alone storage platform as Pure Fusion code is a continuation of Pure Storage's strategy to expand the enterprise storage line, which is available by subscription and will evolve easily to keep IT infrastructure flexible and up-to-date. The combination of FlashArray//XL technology with Pure Fusion delivers high scale, deployment speed, and cloud flexibility.

FlashArray//XL offers additional opportunities:

• Performance for demanding services. High performance of enterprise workloads even in a scalable environment with the ability to double the capacity of network connectivity and the number of volumes in a single array.
• Cloud-based model for fast and easy deployment of current applications. Complementary Pure Fusion and FlashArray//XL solutions give companies access to Storage-as-Code-scale resources clouds and storages Platinum tiers and policies with storage pool optimization and load placement tools.
• Efficiency and density for application consolidation, lower cost of ownership, and meet DPC ecological standards. Consolidating loads in fewer arrays simplifies operations, reduces rack space, and significantly reduces power and cost. cooling
• Continuous data protection and neutralization. in ransomware Data FlashArray//XL arrays are always are protected available. They are easy to recover from any failures, including. attacks

FlashArray//XL and Pure Fusion are designed to meet the requirements of customers who want to standardize storage environments based on a high-scale subscription. Demand for such solutions is confirmed by pre-orders for FlashArray//XL arrays. Customers are committed to standardizing critical enterprise workloads and eliminating any remaining Dell EMC hardware.

"Customers need the right way to scale enterprise storage. FlashArray//XL  is a solution that helps free up legacy storage. It combines enterprise-class arrays and the flexible horizontal scaling tools inherent in the cloud operating model, "- said Shawn Hansen, vice president and general manager, Pure Storage.

According to the company, the FlashArray//XL array has already gone on sale. It provides efficient 5.78 PB capacity, 150 μs latency, 36 GB/s bandwidth, 5:1 average data reduction, 10:1 overall efficiency, and 99.9999 % guaranteed availability when using the 5U platform.
