I am thrilled to announce the launch of our latest ESG Report. For enterprises grappling with data proliferation, the pressure to cut back on power and costs in the data center isn’t just an uphill battle - it can feel downright ineffective. That's where Pure Storage comes in. Our products require up to 10x less energy than mechanical spinning disk storage (HDD) and up to 5x less than solid state drives (SSDs). With storage consuming approximately one quarter of all data center energy, the five to ten times reduction our platform provides can translate into a 20% overall reduction in total data center energy use. This is a significant stride in our commitment to sustainability and responsible business practices.

There’s no denying that AI has become one of the fastest growing and largest areas of enterprise technology investment and innovation in recent years. But a big barrier to adoption (and ultimately success) remains: IT infrastructure, and fragmented data storage systems. Today, at our annual //Accelerate event, Pure Storage announced new platform innovations to eliminate this barrier and fuel enterprise AI innovation. https://lnkd.in/gjwenfgU  https://lnkd.in/g5YYWixC #PureAccelerate #DataStorage #AI #enterprise

Do I focus on addressing risks or accelerating innovation? That's the dilemma most IT organizations face these days. We recently surveyed 1,500 CIOs and IT leaders in large enterprises across the globe. Here are some key takeaways: 👉 Almost all organizations (99.7%) are planning, preparing, or adopting AI. 👉 On average, over half of IT budgets and 60% of organizations’ IT departmental time is predicted to be spent on AI efforts next year. Despite the push towards AI, the IT infrastructure is not ready: 👉 98% of respondents agree that their organization’s infrastructure needs improvements. 👉 80% of respondents are worried about being left behind if their infrastructure can’t keep up with AI requirements.

It was great to catch up with Zeus Kerravala at Cisco Live!. Really excited about Enterprise customers accelerating their AI journeys with #flashstack for #AI. #CLUS Cisco Pure Storage.

On this #EarthDay I think back to all my recent discussions with Enterprise customers and partners. One topic consistently comes up in Europe and increasingly in the US as well -- how to help each other to take action on climate targets. A data center customer grappling with increased power consumption as the company is deploying more GPUs. A manufacturing customer working on Scope 2 reduction to meet her company's science-based targets. A healthcare customer developing a plan to quadruple data capacity while reducing power usage by half. Data growth is skyrocketing - over 1.145 trillion MB of data is currently being created every day. Green data storage is a major opportunity, and is a central element of building a future-ready data infrastructure. It's both sustainable and profitable, helping reduce costs and invest in data-driven innovations. Even better, the impact trickles down across the entire customer value chain. We have an opportunity to radically rethink operations. Please join us to discuss the future of sustainable data storage and the role it plays in companies' competitiveness going forward. #datastorage #sustainable #green https://lnkd.in/gid4aesD?

Welcome Lynn. It is so great to partner together again. Looking forward to joining forces on our mission to become the number one trusted data storage partner for the modern-day Enterprise.
