Pure Storage has unveiled FlashStack CI: a new line of heterogeneous converged infrastructure (CI) solutions comprised of comprehensive reference architectures, deployment and sizing guidelines and single-call support, delivered through FlashStack Authorized Support Partners within the Pure Storage Partner Program (P3). FlashStack CI solutions are fully tested, pre-validated and proven to streamline the implementation of modern infrastructure, delivering faster time to value for service providers and enterprise customers. The introductory configurations combine Pure Storage FlashArray 400 Series arrays with Cisco UCS Blade Servers, Cisco Nexus switches, VMware vSphere 5 and VMware Horizon 6, to form turnkey, highly-performant and efficient flash-powered infrastructure stacks that optimize virtual server (VSI) and virtual desktop (VDI) deployments at scale.

“VMware Horizon, the industry’s most comprehensive desktop solution, paired with Pure Storage FlashStack CI, will provide organizations with technology that is simple to deploy and can accelerate time-to-value,” said Sumit Dhawan, senior vice president and general manager, desktop products and end-user computing at VMware. “With Pure Storage FlashStack CI and VMware Horizon, customers can realize the benefits of a flexible and high performing virtual desktop infrastructure solution.”

“As all-flash storage matures, customers are asking Pure Storage to provide ‘full stack’ solutions to speed the adoption of next-generation infrastructure. Delivering absolute simplicity and the best possible storage experience is core to our vision, so developing converged infrastructure solutions that deliver on that promise is an important step forward for Pure,” said Matt Kixmoeller, vice president of products and marketing at Pure Storage. “Together with our trusted FlashStack Authorized Support Partners, we are eliminating the adoption barriers of all-flash VSI and VDI infrastructure for our mutual customers and accelerating ROI.”
