Pure Coffee Break series is a freewheeling conversation that’s as fun as it is informative. While we’ll dip into Pure Storage® technology, our goal is to educate and entertain rather than sell.

This month, host Savas Nicolaides welcomes Matthias Meppen and James Slater, both principal field solutions architects in EMEA at Pure Storage. They'll share how all-flash is now a financial and operational reality for long-term repositories that would otherwise land on disk. 

We’ll dive into how and why all-flash is now possible, and explore:

  • History - How we got here and the drawbacks of disk and SSDs.
  • Innovation - Technology hurdles overcome to create the reality of an all-flash data centre and the Pure//E™ platforms (FlashArray™ and FlashBlade®). 
  • Impact - What this means for cost, space, power, and sustainability for the future.

You’ll also hear personal insights from James and Matthias who will draw from their experience and discuss what use cases and applications can now be unlocked with flash at scale. And as always, we’ll keep the session educational while highlighting Pure Storage products and capabilities that benefit you.
