According to the GigaOm Radar Report for Enterprise Kubernetes Storage, "Pure is now in a position to offer the most complete set of features for Kubernetes storage on its own as well as third-party storage arrays," as a result of its "strategic acquisition of Portworx" and "the swift integration of Pure Storage Orchestrator in Portworx Essentials," the freemium offering of Portworx Enterprise, available to all Pure Storage FlashArray and FlashBlade customers. The report highlights the ability for customers to "get acquainted with the full Portworx experience" using Portworx Essentials without added costs, as well as Portworx's "excellent" data efficiency, management and monitoring capabilities. Pure Storage received the highest scores among all criteria and evaluation metrics in the analysis.

GigaOm's companion report on Cloud-Native Kubernetes Data Storage claims that today, Portworx "remains the gold standard in cloud-native Kubernetes storage for the enterprise." The report identifies the core strengths of Portworx including "outstanding data management capabilities, unmatched deployment possibilities, and superior management features." Across criteria and evaluation metrics, Portworx was ranked by GigaOm as a "strong focus and perfect fit" in advanced data services, performance, multitenancy, security, monitoring and alerting analytics, as well as architecture, scalability, flexibility and ease of use.

"Kubernetes adoption has grown exponentially to the point where it is now the dominant container orchestration tool. Over the past year, as companies fast-tracked their Kubernetes environments into production, they looked to advanced solutions like Portworx by Pure Storage. The offering's continued position as an Outperformer in this year's Radar reports is a testament to the completeness of its platform, strong enterprise-grade capabilities and excellent manageability." -- Enrico Signoretti, Senior Data Storage Analyst, GigaOm

Today's report inclusions mark the fifth and sixth time that Pure has been in a leadership position in GigaOm Radar Reports for its market-leading storage solutions. Most recently in April 2021, Pure's FlashBlade was positioned as a leader in the GigaOm Radar Report for High-Performance Object Storage. In 2020, Portworx was featured as a leader in the Gigaom Radar for Kubernetes Data Protection and the Gigaom Radar for Data Storage for Kubernetes in 2020. Additionally, Pure was featured as a leader in the GigaOm Radar for Enterprise General-Purpose Storage Systems.

"Pure's position as Leader and Outperformer in this year's reports speaks to the sheer breadth of data storage capabilities that we offer our customer-base relying on Kubernetes and running container-based workloads. We're incredibly honored for Portworx to be included in yet another Gigaom Radar report and to be ranked especially high yet again alongside industry peers." -- Murli Thirumale, VP, GM Cloud Native Business Unit, Pure Storage
