Rely on a backup architecture that’s fast enough to back up and restore data when it matters most, yet big enough to consolidate your data silos—including your backup appliances.
Powered by Pure Storage FlashBlade® systems, Rapid Restore dramatically increases the speed of data restoration without the need to change your backup software.
Legacy purpose-built backup appliances aren’t helping you meet your data-protection SLAs. FlashBlade delivers Rapid Restore for production and test/dev workloads with up to 270 TB/hr data-recovery performance.
Lost opportunities. Lost productivity. Lost customer confidence. Your business is too valuable to be held hostage by ransomware. Learn how to mitigate attacks with FlashBlade and SafeMode™ snapshots.
Rapid Restore with FlashBlade integrates with a diverse portfolio of backup software partners and complements a wide range of data-protection architectures. Avoid rip and replace of your existing backup product or changing your operations.
The addition of native Server Message Block (SMB) support to FlashBlade speeds backups and improves efficiency, delivering high performance for Windows applications and greater coverage of business needs and use cases.
Bring the advantages of all-flash primary storage to your backup and recovery environment. Use Pure FlashRecover™, powered by Cohesity®, to meet modern backup needs including native-cloud integration.

Backup and restore is the practice of copying your data periodically so that you can restore it in the wake of a power outage, cyberattack, or other disruption. From snapshots to mirroring, there are many ways for a business to meet its Recovery Time Objectives (RTOs) and Recovery Point Objectives (RPOs).
How you back up your data and applications matters. It’s about finding the disaster recovery strategy that helps you meet your RTOs and RPOs. So what are they? Here’s a quick breakdown:
RTO: The maximum time your business can afford to lose access to the data that powers your apps and operations. It determines how quickly you need your system to recover.
Common backup methods include:
Full-image backup: You back up the full image of your data to create a restore point you can instantly roll back to. Because you’re performing a full backup, this technique takes the longest to store.
Differential backup: Backs up all changes since the last full-image backup. Restoration only requires two files: the last full-image backup, followed by the most recent differential backup.
Incremental backup: You incrementally back up changes since the last full-image restore point. After a set number of incremental backups, the cycle completes with a full-image backup. Restoration starts with the last full-image backup, followed by incremental backups to the target RPO.
Backing up your files through frequent snapshots and other data-protection methods is a common way to mitigate ransomware attacks. Unfortunately, hackers have realized that if they want to collect a ransom, they’ll need to attack the backups as well. One way to protect your backups from attackers is to use immutable snapshots that cannot be deleted or changed—even if admin credentials are compromised. Learn how Pure FlashBlade with SafeMode snapshots addresses this critical vulnerability.
We work with the best across all industries.
“We don't call it a backup anymore. We call it data protection. We launched FlashBlade for our production systems. It gives us more than just backup and restore.”
“Our investment in Pure has more than proven its short-term worth, but we’re in it for the long-term value it provides to our citizens.”
Explore, in this three-part series, the challenges of legacy data protection and how an all-flash backup solution delivers rapid data availability, restore, and reuse at scale.
