Pure Storage redefining what's possible for their customers with expansion of its next-generation storage products

Tahawul Tech11-07-2025
Pure Storage has announced an expansion of its next-generation storage products designed for the most demanding, high-performance workloads, that they claim will redefine what is possible for their large customer base.
'In an era where data is king and IT complexity remains a major hurdle to accessing and using data for optimal business value, Pure Storage is once again redefining what's possible for customers,' said John Colgrove (Coz), Founder and Chief Visionary at Pure Storage. 'Pure Storage delivers the magic by rejecting the norms we've come to accept for storage infrastructure; they are what's holding us back within this new era of exponential data growth and logarithmic growth of insight value.'
As data volumes rise and business demands shift faster than ever, traditional storage infrastructures create fragmentation, silos, and uncontrolled data sprawl. Organizations must fundamentally change their approach to data storage and management to one that nimbly and efficiently helps customers meet and scale growing data needs.
An Enterprise Data Cloud (EDC) redefines how data is delivered, governed, and consumed by creating a virtualized cloud of data delivering a single, seamless data layer with consistent control across on-premises, public cloud, and hybrid environments. Only the Pure Storage platform offers the performance, efficiency, and intelligence to deliver such data management at scale.
FlashArray and FlashBlade – Built To Do More
Core to the Pure Storage platform are Pure Storage FlashArray™ and Pure Storage FlashBlade®, which underpin the delivery of performance, reliability, and flexibility in a unified storage experience. The latest Pure Storage FlashArray and Pure Storage FlashBlade offerings extend the platform — unlocking massive performance density gains, enabling faster results, and seamlessly scaling for future applications and demands — with capabilities to handle the full workload spectrum.
NEW: Pure Storage FlashArray//XL
The next generation of Pure Storage FlashArray, FlashArray//XL™ R5, sets the bar for performance at extreme scale so customers can consolidate diverse workloads into a unified platform. FlashArray//XL:
Doubles the amount of IOPS (Input/Output Operations Per Second) per rack unit compared to the previous generation and increases max raw capacity by up to 50 percent.
NEW: Pure Storage FlashArray//ST
Continuing to push the boundaries of high-performance platforms, FlashArray//ST™ is a new offering designed to serve the most latency-sensitive workloads such as in-memory databases, large OLTP, log writing, and scale-out and sharded NOSQL databases. FlashArray//ST:
Delivers over 10 million IOPS per five rack units through an optimized IO path.
NEW: Pure Storage FlashBlade//S
Next-generation controller blades in FlashBlade//S™ R2, the latest version of Pure Storage FlashBlade//S, enhance the platform to help organizations accelerate time-to-insight, consolidate infrastructure, and realize faster outcomes from the most demanding data pipelines. FlashBlade//S:
Performs up to 30% greater than competitors across critical workloads like genome sequencing, inference, and electronic design automation simulations, as well as other extensive datasets required for effective AI reasoning.
NEW: Single Architecture of Block, File, and Object
Addressing the explosive growth of unstructured data, Pure Storage extends object support to FlashArray, creating a true single architecture for block, file and object across the entire Pure Storage platform. Object support for FlashArray:
Simplifies data management with block, file, and object consolidated on a single unified platform and consistent experience.
'Pure Storage was born to disrupt the industry, as we introduced new capabilities to reliably achieve better and better performance at any scale,' continued Colgrove. 'We are unwavering in our mission to enable our customers' ambitions, providing the most innovative and reliable foundation they need to confidently meet any future challenge or opportunity.'

Trump executive order cuts red tape for space rocket launches

US President Donald Trump has signed an executive order to ease regulations for space companies launching rockets and carrying out missions. The directive, called Enabling Competition in the Commercial Space Industry, asks federal agencies including the US Department of Transportation and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to speed up the review process for space flight licences and remove outdated regulations. It also asks the Secretary of Transportation, Sean Duffy, to 'eliminate or expedite' environmental reviews for launch and re-entry licences and permits. Such regulations have proven to be a challenge for billionaire Elon Musk and his SpaceX company. The Trump administration said the goal of the executive order, signed on Wednesday, was to make the US a more competitive player in the global space industry. 'By slashing red tape tying up spaceport construction, streamlining launch licences so they can occur at scale and creating high-level space positions in government, we can unleash the next wave of innovation,' said Mr Duffy, who also serves as acting Nasa administrator. 'At Nasa, this means continuing to work with commercial space companies and improving our spaceports' ability to launch." Fast track to launch The Trump administration has historically advocated reducing regulatory barriers and expediting approval processes, especially for industries it considers critical to the country, including as aerospace and defence. Last year, Mr Musk threatened to sue the FAA after it proposed issuing $633,009 worth of penalties to SpaceX for failing to follow licence requirements during two of its launches in 2023. Despite the row between Mr Trump and Mr Musk, SpaceX could benefit most from the executive order, with plans to test its deep-space rocket Starship more frequently. Earlier this year, SpaceX was awarded permission by the FAA to increase launches of the powerful rocket to 25 each year. The directive would also benefit start-ups developing launch technology. Environmental concerns The order also led to opposition from environmental groups, who warned it could weaken protection for wildlife near launch sites. Jared Margolis, of the Centre for Biological Diversity, said the directive 'paves the way for the massive destruction of protected plants and animals". It called the move reckless and said it "puts people and wildlife at risk from private companies launching giant rockets that often explode and wreak devastation on surrounding areas". Race with China Mr Trump's efforts to boost the private space industry would also help the country in the race to the return to the Moon, amid competition form countries including China. Nasa relies on space companies to achieve the goals of its Artemis Moon programme and broader ambitions in the sector. The agency's plan to send astronauts to the lunar language for the first time since the Apollo era will only be possible when SpaceX completes its Starship human landing system. The mission is scheduled to take place on 2027. China also has plans for a human landing mission on the Moon before 2030. Last week, its space agency completed a critical landing and take-off test of its crewed lunar lander.

Soybeans rise further after US production downgrade

CANBERRA - Chicago soybean futures rose to their highest in six weeks on Thursday, cementing their gains after the U.S. government forecast a much smaller harvest than previously expected, but a lack of Chinese demand for U.S. beans still hangs over prices. Corn also edged higher, having plunged more than 3% on Tuesday to contract lows after the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) raised its outlook for the U.S. crop. Wheat climbed from Wednesday's five-year low but remained under pressure from low corn prices and plentiful global supply. The most active soybean contract on the Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT) was up 0.1% at $10.45-1/2 a bushel at 0443 GMT after touching $10.49-1/4, the highest since July 3. CBOT soybeans are now up around 6% this week, boosted first by U.S. President Donald Trump saying he hoped China, the biggest importer, would quadruple its purchases from the United States and then by Tuesday's USDA report. The USDA cut its estimate of the area planted to soybeans in the United States and raised its estimate of the corn area, surprising traders with the scale of the revisions. However, the global soybean market remains well supplied after large harvests in South America, and China's shunning of U.S. beans has kept Chicago prices low. U.S. soybean exporters risk missing out on billions of dollars worth of sales to China as trade talks drag on. If China doesn't start buying, CBOT soybeans are likely to give back their gains, said Sean Hickey, an analyst at Bendigo Bank Agribusiness in Australia. "Chinese demand is going to be the key direction setter," he said. In other crops, CBOT corn was up 0.1% at $3.97-3/4 a bushel and wheat rose 0.1% to $5.07-3/4 a bushel. U.S. farmers are on track for a record-breaking corn crop, the USDA said. Brazil is wrapping up a bumper harvest, and Argentinian farmers plan to increase corn planting for the 2025/26 season, the Rosario grains exchange said.
