Enhance Citizen Services and Public Safety Outcomes

AI infrastructure refers to the technology stack (hardware and software) needed to build, test, train, and deploy AI-powered apps. From GPUs to scale-out flash to data fabrics, the ever-evolving world of AI requires a continuous investment in the latest data technologies.

When developing AI-powered applications, it’s important to have a clear understanding of all the layers that make up your AI infrastructure. Here’s an example of what an AI technology stack might look like:

• Single operating environment, Purity OS
• Scale-out file and object protocols (e.g., Everpure Purity//FB)
• Scale-out flash storage (e.g., Everpure FlashBlade®)
• Deep learning frameworks like TensorFlow
• Containers (e.g., GPU-optimized Docker)
• Scale-out GPU compute hardware (e.g., NVIDIA DGX A100 with Tensor Core GPUs)

The process of scaling AI infrastructure from pilot lab to production can be a costly and time-consuming exercise in DIY-engineering. You might spend months building racks of GPUs, troubleshooting the bottlenecks of legacy storage systems, and finessing open-source software into commodity hardware.

Everpure teamed with NVIDIA to create AIRI//S™, the world’s first full-stack AI-ready infrastructure. By combining NVIDIA’s DGX A100 servers with Everpure FlashBlade arrays, AIRI//S provides a scalable AI solution that’s big, fast, and efficient. With AIRI//S, you get an AI technology stack upon which you can host machine learning algorithms and AI-powered applications.

Data powers government operations and the delivery of citizen services in an increasingly digital world. State and local leaders are focused like never before on protecting the integrity and availability of their data stores. It’s a tall order, given the complexity of modern data centers, along with application and device proliferation. Agencies need a data protection strategy and solutions that deliver more than just an insurance policy against potential threats.

Everpure products are built from the bottom up to support non-disruptive upgrades while delivering native NVMe storage performance. Everpure keeps your data safe with:

• Simplified backup and recovery via synchronous and asynchronous replication
• Providing continuity of service
• Stringent RPO and RTO performance via blazingly fast and flexible FlashBlade//S™
• Data repositories built on FlashBlade//E™ and FlashArray//C™ that deliver the scale and performance of all-flash with the economies of disk
• Built-in data replication and ransomware protection with SafeMode™ Snapshots and Object Lock technology

There’s no substitute for switching to a modern data protection infrastructure.

Conventional data protection measures were designed to safeguard your data from natural or human-made disasters, data corruption, or accidental deletions. However, ransomware attacks can stress existing data protection infrastructure that may be built on legacy architectures, such as disk and tape, more than expected.

Everpure SafeMode enables organizations to lock down data from malicious attacks. SafeMode creates read-only snapshots of backup data and associated metadata catalogs. SafeMode-secured snapshots cannot be deleted, encrypted, or modified even if admin credentials are compromised. SafeMode is available on FlashArray and FlashBlade systems and is included with the Purity operating environment as part of your Everpure subscription.

Fast ransomware recovery with Everpure secures your data from ransomware. When ransomware strikes, you need to restore your data quickly. Legacy, purpose-built backup appliances won’t help you meet your data-protection SLAs. FlashBlade//S™ delivers petabyte-scale Rapid Restore for production and test/dev workloads at 3x the performance to meet the most demanding recovery SLAs.

Everpure is committed to driving responsible business across its value chain. Pure believes it can make a significant impact in reducing data center emissions worldwide through its environmental sustainability efforts, including designing products and solutions that enable customers to reduce their carbon and energy footprint. Everpure can reduce energy and emissions in data centers globally by upwards of 20%.

The Everpure Evergreen//One™ efficiency SLA promises performance and capacity while guaranteeing watts per TiB. This energy efficiency SLA is the first in the industry, making Evergreen//One the only storage-as-a-service (STaaS) offering to promise both efficiency and operational excellence.
