Storage data management tools: What they do and what's available | Computer Weekly
Briefly

Pure Storage's Enterprise Data Cloud (EDC) addresses the complexities of managing vast amounts of data in light of regulatory environments and AI workloads. It emphasizes a single control plane for managing storage across hybrid infrastructures. Analysts highlight Pure's technical advantages in data pipeline support, especially for AI applications. As data management evolves beyond mere infrastructure tasks to include compliance and security, it is critical for CIOs to effectively control these elements. Efficient integration with as-a-service tools is also a key consideration for modern data management practices.
"Adopting high-performance storage optimised for AI workloads is a strategic business imperative, not merely a technical upgrade," says Whit Walters, field chief technology officer at GigaOm.
Pure claims its EDC addresses the management of growing volumes of data in a complex regulatory environment, and the demands storage faces from artificial intelligence (AI) workloads.
Analyst GigaOm rates Pure Storage as a leader in data pipeline support, especially for demanding AI deployments, alongside Hitachi Vantara, HPE, IBM, NetApp and Dell Technologies.
This includes managing conventional metrics, such as capacity, performance and availability, and routine tasks such as provisioning and backup, to issues such as data location for compliance and ransomware protection.
