Pure Storage AIRI® Platform Named “Best AI Solution For Big Data” in 2021 Artificial Intelligence Breakthrough Awards Program

AI Breakthrough, a leading market intelligence organization that recognizes the top companies, technologies and products in the global Artificial Intelligence (AI) market, announced that Pure Storage®,  the IT pioneer that delivers storage as-a-service in a multi-cloud world, has been selected as winner of the “Best AI Solution for Big Data” award in the fourth annual AI Breakthrough Awards program for its AIRI® infrastructure solution.

Powered by Pure’s unified fast file and object (UFFO) storage platform FlashBlade®, AIRI offers organizations a simple and flexible infrastructure to meet AI demands for any AI initiative, at any scale. AIRI flexibly adapts to business demand as AI models move from prototyping to deployment, with one universal AI system that offers right-sized resources for every workload, and consolidates silos into a single elastic AI infrastructure.

The NVIDIA® DGX A100™ systems and FlashBlade platform within AIRI replace the performance of racks of legacy technology, offering data scientists the power of a large supercomputer for any AI initiative. AIRI offers graphics processing units (GPUs), scale-out flash and remote direct memory access (RDMA) fabric that move large data loads.

“Traditional approaches to AI infrastructure often result in silos of servers and storage that are either over-spent on capacity or starve AI workloads. The complexities of legacy solutions are holding enterprises back from moving into the new era of AI,” said Amy Fowler, VP of Strategy and Solutions for FlashBlade at Pure Storage. “AIRI offers a modern platform suited to the unique demands of analytics, training and inference. We are incredibly proud to receive this 2021 AI Breakthrough Award in recognition of our innovative approach as we drive to make AI-first infrastructure a reality.”
