Bangalore, India – August 3, 2022 — Pure Storage (NYSE: PSTG), the IT pioneer that delivers the world’s most advanced data storage technology and services announced today that Euronet Worldwide, Inc., a leading global financial technology solutions and payments provider, has implemented Pure’s modern data solutions as part of its on-going efforts to maintain the most modern underlying IT infrastructure possible for its digital payment systems in India. This upgrade has helped Euronet meet exponential demand for digital payments during the pandemic-enforced lockdowns. The migration to Pure Storage has also dramatically reduced Euronet’s energy consumption, helping the company meet its sustainability goals.
Euronet’s data centers process a wide variety of payment transactions including digital-to-cash, cash-to-digital, card-based, dynamic digital codes, cross border, and multiple currencies, and real-time settlements.
The lockdowns during the Covid-19 pandemic caused a rapid increase in digital transactions and instant payments. To meet this demand, Euronet embarked on a project to upgrade its underlying IT infrastructure including the critical storage systems.
The company selected Pure Storage for several reasons: Performance; lower energy consumption; and Pure’s unique Evergreen™//Forever storage program which provides Euronet with worry-free storage management over the next few years through non-disruptive upgrades to the latest technologies from Pure.
