Pure Accelerate 2022 – Industry Snapshot

Pure Storage Accelerate 2022

Pure Storage used its first in-person Accelerate customer and partner conference since 2019 to present its vision for what CEO Charlie Giancarlo calls the second stage of growth for the all-flash storage company.

Giancarlo attributed Pure’s first stage of growth to its entering the all-flash market at the right time (2011) and the right product (FlashArray block storage). Buoyed by a 50% year-over-year growth in revenue to $620 million last quarter, Pure is poised to enter the second stage based on a wider portfolio of products with hopes of landing more large enterprises and hyperscalers as customers.

The plan for stage 2 growth includes pushing more into file and container-native storage, expanding consumption-based pricing options, and achieving greater energy efficiency to attract customers seeking to use less power and space. Pure executives claim while its competitors see storage as a commodity, they are dedicated to innovating around flash, sustainability and cloud-native storage. Pure pledged to spend 20% of revenue on research and development to fund that innovation. It has stuck to its founding goal of driving hard disk drives out of enterprise storage, and acquired Portworx in 2020 to address container-native storage.

At Accelerate, Pure made two announcements designed to help it fulfill its stage two goals: an addition to its FlashBlade file/object storage platform and a rebranding and expansion of its Evergreen asa-service model.

Pure also demonstrated Portworx Data Services and Backup-as-aService that it launched at KubeCon earlier this month.

Welcome

The vision behind everything in Futurum’s Custom Research practice is this: research should show you what is happening, what comes next, and what to do about it. It should be personal to each audience, easy for people to grasp, and structured so LLMs can reason over it accurately. And it should be fast and turnkey; you want answers now, not another project to carry for quarters.

Whether you are defining business, channel, or go-to-market strategy; evaluating vendors or justifying ROI; or commissioning research to fill an emerging market need, we have your back, with a program that answers your questions with the objectivity and credibility to drive real decisions.

To do it, we bring unmatched data to bear: Futurum research, surveys, and market projections; validated market feeds; ETR’s 15 years of insight from 10,000 technology decision-makers; G2’s buyer and user data; and what our analysts hear every day. Add leading primary collection, from AI-moderated voice interviews to surveys and analyst-led interviews, all turnkey, and every project comes out credible, nuanced, and actionable.

And we don’t just drop the results in your lap. For internal work, we provide analyst-led sessions, interactive dashboards, and a range of formats. For market-facing work, Futurum delivers turnkey activation and amplification that actually gets seen, by people and by LLMs, through our media and share of voice. This is research that moves decisions and markets.

We will meet you wherever you are, from a fast-turn brief to a multi-year program, and shape the work to your goals, timeline, and budget. The right program for your moment.

If any of this is useful, I would love to talk.
