Pure Storage has announced it has reached a new growth milestone for its subscription-based Evergreen Storage programme, with over 2,700 customers having done non-disruptive storage upgrades and the average number of upgrades having grown 38% year-over-year for the last five years.
The consistent growth of Evergreen serves as a foundation for Pure’s strategy to deliver simple, reliable and scalable storage as-a-service (STaaS) and a seamless bridge to the cloud.
Unveiled in 2015, Evergreen has paved the way for the new era of IT ownership by enabling customers with a subscription to innovation that reduces costs, creates a longer and more sustainable technology lifecycle, and allows them to continue to modernise their organisations with zero disruptions to respond to changing business needs.
Evergreen’s momentum, combined with Pure as-a-Service, a true consumption-based STaaS offering, and Pure Cloud Block Store, which provides seamless data mobility across on-premises and cloud environments, is a testament to Pure’s expanding and unified subscription strategy. In the first quarter of fiscal year 2022, Pure’s subscription services revenue grew 35% year-over-year.
“Organisations are increasingly turning to subscription-based, as-a-Service solutions to drive agility and eliminate the negative impacts of planned maintenance. The incredible momentum of Evergreen reaffirms our commitment to helping organisations achieve a high level of manageability and simplicity when it comes to their data storage needs,” said Prakash Darji, VP and GM, Digital Experience Business Unit, Pure Storage.

While conventional storage upgrades require a complete overhaul of an organisation’s IT infrastructure, including removing outdated storage and replacing it with the latest technology, Pure’s Evergreen Storage is completely disruption-free, eliminates storage rebuys, and provides investment protection. To date, the programme has successfully delivered over 7,000 non-disruptive controller upgrades to Pure’s growing customer-base, eliminating downtime, performance impact, data migrations and forklift upgrades.
