Are you looking to modernize your storage infrastructure and be able to deploy your Kubernetes applications on it?
We are excited to announce the Portworx integration with Pure FlashArray (FA) and FlashBlade (FB) in Portworx Enterprise 2.9 release. With this integration, organizations are now able to standardize the data needs of all types of workloads – both containerized and non-containerized. The single vendor support from Portworx by Pure Storage addresses the operational complexities of data management across all types of applications.
This release enables customers to take advantage of automatic provisioning of block volumes on FA with Portworx. This helps them uncover the data management capabilities of the platform for cloud-native apps. Customers can now experience the following benefits

The scalable and highly available control plane ensures non-stop K8s provisioning, boosting the resiliency. The minimal virtualization overhead with no noticeable application impact makes the platform high-performant.
- Tight integration between DevOps and infrastructure team Enable your DevOps and storage platform/infrastructure team to unify and gain end-to-end visibility into the raw storage usage and performance stats on hardware as well as Portworx storage pools.
