SANTA
CLARA, Calif., Jan. 7, 2025
/PRNewswire/ -- Pure Storage® (NYSE: PSTG), the IT
pioneer that delivers the world's most advanced data storage
technology and services, today announced the expansion of its
strategic collaboration with Micron Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ: MU),
a global leader in memory and storage solutions. This strategic
collaboration enables the high-capacity and energy-efficient
solutions that hyperscalers require using Micron G9 QLC NAND for
future DirectFlash® Module products.
The joint effort continues a decade-long initiative of
integrating Micron's latest NAND technology with Pure Storage
solutions, which spans seven generations and includes the Micron G8
QLC NAND qualified for production in Pure Storage's 150TB
DirectFlash Module. Combined with Pure Storage's advanced data
storage platform, the solution delivers a data storage platform
with massive drive capacities, high performance, and low latency —
while driving architectural simplification and delivering
significant energy efficiency improvements.
Customer Challenge:
In modern data centers, three
critical concerns factor into every storage solution — energy
efficiency, storage density, and performance. Data centers consume
tremendous amounts of power, which is why energy-efficient
solutions are critical to managing both operational expenses and
the impact on the environment. Additionally, as data centers grow,
they remain space-constrained, making every square foot valuable.
Operators are continuously challenged to fit more storage into less
space. Meanwhile, storage performance is even more important as a
competitive advantage because consumers of data center services
expect faster data processing as the rush to turn data into
insights accelerates.
Customer Impact:
Pure Storage and Micron are
collaborating to deliver a winning total cost of ownership solution
versus legacy hard drive-based storage solutions for hyperscalers.
The collaboration provides the following benefits:
- Improved performance, lower latency: The combination of
Pure Storage's leading data storage platform with Micron's advanced
NAND technology with industry-leading transfer rates provides
ultrafast, low-latency, and reliable solutions for massive,
data-intensive workloads.
- Sustainable solutions: This joint solution dramatically
reduces the energy consumption over traditional storage solutions,
lowering operating costs and reducing the environmental
footprint.
- Rack-dense, scalable solutions: By integrating Micron's
NAND that offers industry-leading areal density (that is, bits per
square millimeter), Pure Storage can deliver highly scalable
systems at a reduced total cost of acquisition and ownership.
Executive Insight:
"Pure Storage's collaboration with Micron is another example of our
significant momentum bringing the benefits of all-flash storage
technology to hyperscale environments," said Bill Cerreta, General Manager, Hyperscale, Pure
Storage. "With Micron's advanced NAND technology, Pure Storage can
further optimize storage scalability, performance, and energy
efficiency for an industry with unparalleled requirements."
"Micron's advanced NAND technologies, combined with Pure's
innovative storage solutions, enable data center operators to
address the increasing performance, efficiency, and scalability
needs for today's hyperscale data centers," said Jeremy Werner, SVP & GM, Storage Business
Unit, Micron. "Built on trust and thriving on innovation,
our collaboration with Pure Storage consistently offers
cutting-edge storage solutions for hyperscale and enterprise
environments."
