Pure Storage Accelerates Enterprise AI Adoption to Meet Growing Demands with NVIDIA AI
Tuesday, March 26, 2024
SANTA CLARA, Calif., March 18, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Pure Storage(®) (NYSE: PSTG), the IT pioneer that delivers the world's most advanced data storage technology and services, today announced new validated reference architectures for running generative AI use cases, including a new NVIDIA OVX-ready validated reference architecture. As a leader in AI, Pure Storage, in collaboration with NVIDIA, is arming global customers with a proven framework to manage the high-performance data and compute requirements they need to drive successful AI deployments.
News Highlights:
Building on this collaboration with NVIDIA, Pure Storage delivers the latest technologies to meet the rapidly growing demand for AI across today's enterprises. New validated designs and proofs of concept include:
-- Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) Pipeline for AI Inference: To
improve the accuracy, currency, and relevance of Inference capabilities
for large language models (LLMs), Pure Storage created a RAG pipeline
leveraging NVIDIA NeMo Retriever microservices and NVIDIA GPUs and Pure
Storage for all-flash enterprise storage. As a result, Pure Storage
accelerates time to insight for enterprises using their own internal
data for AI training, ensuring the use of their latest data and
eliminating the need for constant retraining of LLMs.
-- Certified NVIDIA OVX Server Storage Reference Architecture: Pure Storage
has achieved OVX Server Storage validation, providing enterprise
customers and channel partners with flexible storage reference
architectures, validated against key benchmarks to provide a strong
infrastructure foundation for cost- and performance-optimized AI
hardware and software solutions. This validation offers additional
choice for AI customers and complements Pure Storage's certification for
NVIDIA DGX BasePOD announced last year.
-- Vertical RAG Development: To accelerate successful AI adoption across
vertical industries, Pure Storage is creating vertical-specific RAGs in
collaboration with NVIDIA. First, Pure Storage has created a financial
services RAG solution to summarize and query massive datasets with
higher accuracy than off-the-shelf LLMs. Financial services institutions
can now gain faster insight using AI to create instant summaries and
analysis from various financial documents and other sources. Additional
RAGs for healthcare and public sector to be released.
-- Expanded Investment in AI Partner Ecosystem: Pure Storage is further
investing in its AI partner ecosystem with NVIDIA, engaging in new
partnerships with ISVs like Run.AI and Weights & Biases. While Run.AI
optimizes GPU utilization through advanced orchestration and scheduling,
the Weights & Biases AI Development platform enables ML teams to build,
evaluate, and govern the model development lifecycle. Additionally, Pure
Storage is working closely with AI-focused reseller and service partners
including ePlus, Insight, WWT, and others to further operationalize
joint customer AI deployments.
Executive Insight:
-- "Pure Storage recognized the rising demand for AI early on, delivering
an efficient, reliable, and high-performance platform for the most
advanced AI deployments. Embracing our long-standing collaboration with
NVIDIA, the latest validated AI reference architectures and generative
AI proofs of concept emerge as pivotal components for global enterprises
in unraveling the complexities of the AI puzzle." - Rob Lee, Chief
Technology Officer, Pure Storage
-- "NVIDIA's AI platform reference architectures are enhanced by Pure's
simple, efficient, and reliable data infrastructure, delivering

AI, data analytics, and advanced computing. Pure's latest validated
reference architectures and proofs of concept are helping drive AI
innovation, providing businesses with the tools needed to unlock new
possibilities and drive transformative outcomes." - Bob Pette, Vice
President of Enterprise Platforms, NVIDIA
-- "At WWT, technology innovation is at the core of delivering valuable
services to our global clients. As the demand for AI grows, we couldn't
be more excited to continue partnering with two best-of-breed vendors in
our AI Proving Ground. Pure Storage's high-performance AI storage
infrastructure and NVIDIA's prowess in AI computing creates an
impressive synergy, enabling our joint customers to seamlessly infuse
artificial intelligence into their business operations while driving
meaningful ROI." - Ryan Avery, High-Performance Storage Architect, World
Wide Technology
-- "Our mission at Run.AI is to be a driving force in the AI revolution,
leading the charge for positive change across industries and enhancing
the human experience. Focusing our efforts on providing the essential
software layer that empowers AI infrastructure, we are thrilled to
partner with Pure Storage and NVIDIA to help drive broader (and more
successful) adoption of advanced enterprise AI initiatives." - Yael Dor,
VP, Global Sales and Partnerships, Run.AI
-- "At Weights & Biases, we're dedicated to building the best tools for
machine learning and generative AI -- including automating
experimentation and model artifact tracking, streamlining model and
prompt evaluation, and enabling end-to-end governance and
reproducibility of machine learning workloads. Our expanded
collaboration with Pure Storage and NVIDIA further empowers AI
developers on their journeys to building and deploying superior models
with speed, reliability, and efficiency." - Seann Gardiner, VP of
Business Development, Weights & Biases
-- "Pure Storage's NVIDIA-validated reference architectures and proofs of
concept provide enterprises across industries a shortcut to AI success.
Rather than investing valuable time and resources in building an AI
architecture from scratch, Pure's proven frameworks not only mitigate
the risk of expensive project delays but also guarantee a high return on
investment for AI team expenditures like GPUs." - Mike Leone, Principal
Analyst, ESG
Industry Significance:
Today, the majority of AI deployments are dispersed across fragmented data environments -- from the cloud to ill-suited (often legacy) storage solutions. Yet these fragmented environments cannot support the performance and networking requirements to fuel AI data pipelines and unlock the full potential of enterprise data.
As enterprises further embrace AI to drive innovation, streamline operations, and gain a competitive edge, the demand for robust, high-performance, and efficient AI infrastructure has never been stronger.
Pioneering enterprise AI deployments, particularly among a rapidly growing set of Fortune 500 enterprise customers, Pure Storage provides a simple, reliable, and efficient storage platform for enterprises to fully leverage the potential of AI, while reducing the associated risk, cost, and energy consumption.
