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

Who knew that the best coffee break conversations would end up happening online? 

This month, host Markus Grau welcomes Christian Stein to explore the expansive landscape that is all things Modern Data Protection and explain how it ties into it.

We’ll cover:

Current Trends in the Data Protection Space — AI and machine learning are being integrated into data protection solutions to enhance threat detection and response capabilities.
What Role Does Business Continuity Management Have — let’s speak about resiliency, business continuity plans and strategies to overcome disasters within a BCM lifecycle. 
Choose Your Own Adventure (with Pure) — we’ll wander through different approaches and talk about RPO, RTO, security, ransomware, and more. Why does a tiered resiliency approach make sense in an overall “business continuity and disaster recovery strategy”? Furthermore, lets talk about why it matters to have a fast restore and an overall protection from the inside and the outside and how to maintain all these requirements!

Choose your Own (Restore) Adventure: Pure’s Modern Cyber Resiliency Portfolio

When your data and applications are offline, your organization faces significant losses – in time, money, even reputation. Legacy storage is often the culprit, but newer technologies like Pure Storage were designed to stay online, even during upgrades. Learn how you can overcome downtime and increase agility with the right infrastructure.

In this webinar, you will learn:

- How to keep your data available and performing at its peak, no matter what changes come
- Tips to cut downtime
- Why IT agility is essential – and achievable

What Can Non-Disruptive Storage Do For You?

For IT and security leaders, Tiered Resiliency is the order of the day. As data explodes and sprawls across silos, users work in more places, and containerization reshapes the environment, successful cyberattacks become more likely than ever—perhaps even inevitable. That makes it essential to look beyond cyberdefense and focus on how you’ll keep your data protected no matter what happens.

Join Pure Storage CTO of Americas Andy Stone and Commvault CTO of Security Alex Janas for this session to learn how Tiered Resiliency is redefining modern data protection. Designed for an environment of escalating risk, a tiered resiliency architecture can help you recover data quickly and effectively in the event of a cyberattack, disaster, or administrative accident—so you can get back to business fast.

Data is the new oil, but raw data is not valuable. It needs to be cleaned and augmented to be useful.
While everyone wants to get the most out of their data with AI, it can be slow and painful to prepare the data, train your models, and create checkpoints at scale.

This requires new technologies and collaboration between teams to go from raw data to business outcomes.

Join Markus Grau, JB Thomas, and Michael Kaspers to hear about their first-hand experience tackling these challenges.
You might be surprised where storage can enable your AI journey.
