Platform Engineers Can Run Kubernetes in
Production at Scale with Next-Gen Performance and Reliability
within Seconds
DETROIT, Oct. 26,
2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Today at KubeCon North America
2022, Pure Storage® (NYSE: PSTG), the IT pioneer that
delivers the world's most advanced data storage technology and
services, announced a new fully managed service for
Portworx® Enterprise to bring a Kubernetes-ready data
plane to every developer that works on containerized applications.
With Portworx Enterprise 3.0, the underlying platform for this new
fully managed service, DevOps teams can run mission-critical
Kubernetes apps in production with elastic scalability and
unmatched data availability. Now the full suite of Portworx
offerings can be consumed as a fully managed service by users of
Amazon EKS, RedHat OpenShift, and any other Kubernetes services
(fully managed or upstream distributions).

"The mission of Portworx has always been to help platform
engineering teams offer to their developers an enterprise-grade
Kubernetes-ready data platform with speed, simplicity, and scale.
By delivering the fully managed service for the Portworx platform,
the #1 Kubernetes data platform, we are bringing the cloud
experience, on any storage infrastructure, to the fingertips of any
developer who wants to work with Kubernetes apps in production." –
Murli Thirumale, VP & GM, Cloud
Native Business Unit, Pure Storage.
The fully managed service provides ease of use and faster
deployment of Kubernetes data on any cloud or on-premises storage,
enabling DevOps and platform teams to operate and scale
containerized apps into production in seconds, versus weeks or
months. The fully managed service will offer a no install, easy to
use, and easy to manage experience to users with no container
expertise required, making Day 0 and Day 2 operations for
Kubernetes clusters simple with a few clicks.
With the 3.0 release of Portworx Enterprise, Portworx continues
to push the boundaries of performance and reliability for
containerized workloads in a unified data platform for file, block,
and object storage.
- The new PX-Fast capability provides best-in-industry
performance for low latency data services such as Kafka, Elastic,
and MongoDB with fast ingestion needs, and high throughput for
online transaction processing (OLTP), online analytical processing
(OLAP), and machine learning (ML) workloads. The Kubernetes Data
Management platform of Portworx uniquely provides throughput/IOPS
extremely close to the equivalent of writing directly to the
high-performing NVMe-based infrastructure, boosting the underlying
performance to over one million IOPS. PX-Fast makes Kubernetes data
storage look like local storage for containerized apps and data.
Customers are able to harness the power of petabytes of data
generated from apps such as video on-demand, VoIP, etc. with a
close-to-zero failure rate.
- The Near-Sync DR capability extends the existing
Portworx Disaster Recovery capability by providing the lowest
possible RPO between two cloud regions or geographically distant
data centers, giving enterprises the desired level of business
continuity. The Portworx platform has always supported disaster
recovery capabilities with zero RPO and fast RTO between two metro
region clusters with <10ms latency. This in itself is unachieved
by anyone else in the industry. And with Near-Sync DR, the platform
will extend its end-to-end DR solution with a guaranteed 24 second
RPO and a fast RTO between two regions with higher network
latencies. Customers will be able to run their tier 1
mission-critical apps with the utmost trust and confidence,
leveraging the platform's top-notch resiliency and
reliability.
- The Object Storage Service capability provides another
storage interface (in addition to file and block storage) to run
containerized workloads. Using this feature, users can manage and
access object storage buckets with native Kubernetes integration to
get a single consistent experience across cloud and on-prem S3
stores.
"Red Hat OpenShift is the industry's leading enterprise
Kubernetes platform, providing a consistent foundation for
developers to build, deploy, manage, and scale containerized
applications faster across hybrid and multi cloud environments all
the way to the Edge. Portworx data management and data protection
offerings help unlock key use cases for Red Hat OpenShift workloads
in production. This latest managed cloud service offering from
Portworx by Pure Storage addresses increased customer interest in
building a single platform to offer storage, migration and data
management-as-a-service to developers on top of Red Hat OpenShift,
and demonstrates the power of an Ecosystem of partners working
together to better support our joint Customer's needs." –
Chris Gray, Vice President, North
America Partner Ecosystem, Red Hat
In addition, Portworx is introducing a free forever tier of
Portworx Backup, the leading Kubernetes backup and data protection
service. Platform teams can now get started with the fully managed
service of Portworx Backup with no feature restrictions, and
protect up to 1TB of data at no cost. Each backup instance can
manage hundreds of Kubernetes clusters. The free, fully managed
Portworx Backup can be used indefinitely by any organization
looking for an enterprise-grade data protection service to protect
their Kubernetes workloads with a few clicks.
Portworx Enterprise 3.0 release and the fully managed service
will be available in early 2023. To learn more, visit:
