Berrios Innovates with Cloudlike Consumption Economics

When Puerto Rico-based retailer Berrios needed to scale storage on demand while remaining resilient to natural disaster and cyberthreat, it chose the Pure Storage® Evergreen//Flex™ subscription model.

Summary

The largest furniture store in Puerto Rico, Empresas Berrios is known for its quality of service, product variety, price, and ease of financing. The company has relied on Pure Storage to help withstand catastrophic events like Hurricane Maria in 2017 and its year-long power outage on the island with no service interruptions. The company recently adopted the Pure Storage Evergreen//Flex subscription model to drive the business forward.

Berrios: Managing in Times of Crisis
The impact and aftermath of the Hurricane Maria is explained by employees of Berrios. Berrios is one of the largest home furnishing and household goods retailers in Puerto Rico.

Challenges

Legacy arrays could not scale with business growth and rising data volume. Escalating energy costs made its datacenter footprint a major concern and power outages, natural disasters, and ransomware all threatened business continuity. Berrios needed a cost-effective way to scale its storage quickly to meet increasing data demands and stay resilient to catastrophic events like it has since it withstood Hurricane Maria in 2017.
