Pure Storage Support

swolfe

Hi,

Is there any support planned in the future to support Pure arrays?

Pavel

Hi,

it was something we have been considered but we have gave it up recently because of:

1. we have no access to Pure storage, also local Pure storage reseller does not have any demo box
2. we have been told that Pure storage comes with very nice GUI which includes even performance monitoring
3. not too big market share, well it might growing I know

We could re-consider it in the future as already couple of people asked us about that.
The the bigest problem is retain point 1.

Hi Pavel,

Thanks for the update. Maybe you can reach out to Pure to get a POC box from them. I'll stay tuned to any updates you guys provide for support of the arrays. While the monitor GUI is nice, having a one stop shop to review all of your performance is much more convenient which you guys bring to the table. As for the market share, i'm starting to see it trend upwards.

We have already contacted Pure directly, no interest at all ... I can understand it
