Cloud Block Store TCO Calculator

Pure Cloud Block Store Savings Calculator

Calculate your cloud storage costs and see your long-term savings.

Take the 5 Year View

The total cost of storage over a 5 year period can be difficult to estimate accurately without taking data growth rate into account. Even a 10% data growth rate can double your footprint in a little over 7 years. Use our calculator to see your future costs and potential savings.

Based on your inputs, here are your total expected savings over a five year period. The chart illustrates estimates of the cost of native cloud storage compared to Pure Cloud Block Store cumulatively over 5 years. They are based on your inputs with several key assumptions we make for simplicity. Please read the descriptions below for more detailed information. This is an estimate and your actual outcomes may vary. For a full TCO calculation with customized inputs, please follow up with Pure Storage sales.

Based on your inputs, our model doesn't reflect the full value for your scenario. The Key Assumptions below detail how we're calculating your capacity savings. Pure Cloud Block Store also offers data services such as encryption, replication, and ransomware remediation. For a detailed value assessment, please follow up with your Pure Storage contact.

Azure Managed Disks

Typically, reserve commits reduce costs. The longer the commitment, the larger the cost savings. Contract terms are 1 year, 3 year, and on-demand. The most expensive option is the on-demand rate, which has no commitment.

All upfront payment options can result in lower infrastructure cost.

Azure Managed Disks have the ability to be Locally Redundant (LRS) or Zone Redundant (ZRS). We are basing calculations using a LRS configuration.

Used to determine thin provisioned capacity and host data written data required.

Used to determine rate of change when using Azure Standard Snapshots (Locally Redundant Storage)

Pure's average data reduction ratio is on average greater than 4:1. This is accomplished through the data services of the Purity Operating Environment by employing multiple strategies: compression, deduplication, pattern removal, thin provisioning, and space-efficient snapshots. This results in an overall smaller footprint for data when on Pure Cloud Block Store relative to native offerings and ultimately lower cost.

Best practices recommend using snapshots.

All upfront payment options can result in lower infrastructure cost.

Ultra Disk allows to specify desired IOPS. Calculated to be 2 IOPS per GB for simplicity.

Ultra Disk allows to specify required throughput. Calculated to be 8KB/s per IO for simplicity.

Performance (io1) allows for specifying IOPS required. Calculated at 1 IOPS/GiB for simplicity.

Estimated to meet the requirements of most large production workloads.

AWS recommends keeping a second copy of data for High Availability purposes.
