MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif.,
Jan. 4, 2022 /PRNewswire/
-- Pure Storage® (NYSE: PSTG), the IT pioneer that
delivers storage as-a-service in a multi-cloud world, today
announced new momentum within the U.S. public sector as government
plans for infrastructure modernization accelerate.
Pure is a trusted partner to essential government agencies
across the intelligence, space, cyber, defense, civilian, health,
state, local, and education markets. With more than 175 of
the United States' 440 federal
agencies relying on its services, Pure has breadth and depth of
government customers and experience, serving agencies across all
three branches of the U.S. Federal Government and three branches of
the U.S. Department of Defense. At the state, local, and education
(SLED) level, Pure has customer representation in 48 of the 50 U.S.
states.
Pure Storage's public sector business achieved all-time highs in
Q3 as its customer base and use case portfolio grew. New public
sector customers from the quarter include:
- A large agency within the Department of Treasury chose Pure to
replace their legacy storage arrays with simple, scalable all-flash
solutions that help solve its largest, most-complex data management
challenges. Together, Pure and a strategic partner are providing
the agency a true as-a-service experience with non-disruptive
upgrades via our Evergreen™ program.
- A core agency within the Department of Homeland Security chose
Pure FlashBlade® to help power its advanced analytics
and AI operations. This technology is central to the agency's
mission of enhancing national security through innovation,
intelligence, collaboration, and trust.
- Commonwealth of Massachusetts
adopted Pure-as-a-Service complete with FlashArray™,
FlashStack® for Block Performance and Block Capacity,
FlashBlade and the Portworx® Suite to containerize and
modernize key applications. Armed with these advancements, the
Commonwealth was able to modernize its infrastructure and
application to support continuity of services to its agencies and
the public.
Trends and developments in cloud transformation, ransomware,
cybersecurity, DevOps, and artificial intelligence (AI) are all
driving modernization demand within the public sector, across
Federal, SLED, and Healthcare. Agencies are looking to implement
hybrid cloud strategies that best serve their goals, moving some
workloads to the cloud while repatriating others to on-premises,
with containerization becoming increasingly essential. Accelerating
this further, the American Rescue Plan, CARES act, and other
government relief programs are enabling these organizations to
invest more in building secure, resilient data centers that these
new technologies require.
Pure has separated itself as a vendor of choice among public
sector customers because its solutions and services deliver
unmatched resilience and performance with the flexibility,
scalability, and agility of the cloud, regardless of where their
data lives.
"2022 will be the year of infrastructure investment and cloud
transformation for the government, and Pure is the best positioned
storage vendor to enable the public sector with an agile, resilient
data platform delivered via a cloud operating model and secured by
built-in data protection. We're proud to support federal and SLED
customers as their trusted partner, facilitating their most
strategic, future-proof path to IT modernization." -- Mike Wiseman, VP of Americas Public Sector
Sales, Pure Storage.
