The joint solution enables automated movement of snapshot data between FlashArray and HyperStore, giving customers the performance and economic benefits of on-premises flash and object storage that can also be extended to the public cloud.

Overcoming Shortfalls of Traditional Storage
With the continued growth of data and its increasing strategic value, enterprises are struggling with the complexities and inefficiencies of legacy disk-to-disk-to-tape data protection architectures. By providing a flash-to-object storage solution with Pure, Cloudian offers customers more flexible backup, archive and DR options that deliver the performance, capacity and scale they need on-premises and across multiple locations, including public clouds.

HyperStore available as an appliance or software, with benefits as: 

• Modular, limitless scalability, enabling users to start small and non-disruptively add nodes for increased capacity.
• Geo-distribution for managing storage across multiple data centers and hybrid cloud environments, all from a single pane of glass.
• Nnative S3 compatibility, so customers can capitalize on the growing ecosystem of S3-compatible applications.
• Multi-cloud support to eliminate vendor lock-in.
• Rich metadata tagging, facilitating Google-like search and AI/analytics applications.
• Up to 70% cost savings over alternative disk-and tape-based offerings.

CloudSnap connects with HyperStore as a backup, archive or DR target via an S3 API, providing policy-based data transfer, including moving portable snapshots to and from HyperStore.

“Pure Storage delivers solutions that meet customers’ evolving data needs,” said Jay Subramanian, VP, product management, Pure. “This collaboration of Purity CloudSnap with Cloudian is ideal in maximizing the value of one’s digital assets by offloading storage snapshots to an exabyte-scale capacity platform.“

“In today’s world of expanding workloads and increasing business demands, traditional storage solutions just don’t cut it,” said Sanjay Jagad, senior director of products and solutions, Cloudian. “Through our partnership with Pure, we’re providing customers with a much more simple, efficient and cost-effective foundation for storing, protecting and leveraging their data.“
