Pure is redefining the storage experience and empowering innovators by simplifying how people consume and interact with data.

For the July Coffee Break, we’re exploring how the public cloud has redefined expectations for IT infrastructure, especially when it comes to data storage. As-a-service is the next frontier in on-premises data infrastructure, allowing you to focus on outcomes instead of fighting fires and making do with inflexible storage.
But not all data storage delivers on the as-a-service promise. You need a flexible, unified, and expandable architecture to meet the challenges of changing needs, cyber resilience, and optimizing costs. The Pure Storage platform delivers this future today—built from the ground up as a fully as-a-service data infrastructure for all workloads. 

We dive into what to look for when considering data infrastructure, so that you can operate like the cloud wherever your data resides.

About the Pure Storage Coffee Break Series: Each month, we invite experts in technology and business to chat about the themes driving today’s IT agenda. This is no webinar or training session—it’s a freewheeling conversation that’s as fun as it is informative and the perfect way to break up your day. While we’ll wander into Pure Storage technology, our goal is to educate and entertain, rather than sell.

At Your Service: Understanding the Storage-as-a-Service Landscape

For the August Coffee Break, Andrew Miller invites Principal Technologist and VCDX (VMware Certified Design Expert) Rob Quast to explore Rob’s career and why a VCDX (VMware’s top design certification and a true challenge to obtain) is working for a storage company. Yes, this might relate to our conversation in February about why a DBA (Anthony Nocentino) is here at Pure Storage.

For the rest of the time, we’ll continue the great platform discussion with Justin Emerson from May exploring:

Products vs platforms: The many definitions of “platform,” how a platform perspective has helped throughout our careers, and how it may help you.
The Pure Storage platform perspective: Thanks to years of differentiated R&D and an expanding portfolio, the Pure Storage platform is built on four key pillars: storage as a service, effortless management at any scale, simple unified infrastructure, and Evergreen® architecture (also covered in July).
Pure Fusion™: How the current release and future vision of Pure Fusion is enabling the data and storage platform we’ve long dreamed of as an industry but never before been able to realize. First-of-its-kind storage automation? A bold claim we realize…but we’ll back it up.

Many firms historically have viewed regulatory compliance as both a seemingly endless burden and a hindrance to innovation. What if a byproduct of simultaneously satisfying regulations and increasing operational resilience could be creating a significant competitive advantage? What if, indeed! 

Join our experts on June 25 for an information-packed session to explore how organizations like yours can turn compliance efforts into a major competitive advantage. We’ll cover: 

Regulatory compliance, while extremely challenging, can become a formidable forcing function to foster, not stifle, innovation—both on the technical and business side.

Why improving operational resilience is not only a critical component for addressing regulatory challenges, but can simultaneously evolve how data is used and accessed across the enterprise.

Compliance as a Catalyst: Transforming Regulatory Challenges into Opportunities
