MOUNTAIN VIEW, CA — (Marketwire) — 11/09/11 — , the all-flash enterprise storage company, has been named the silver winner of the Enterprise Product of the Year in Best in Biz Awards 2011 for its FlashArray. The Best in Biz Awards is the only national business awards program judged by members of the press and industry analysts. More than 150 entries were received in this year-s awards program, from a wide array of public and private companies from a variety of industries, sectors and regions. The companies honored in this year-s program represent the best in American business.
Winners of Best in Biz Awards 2011 were determined by scores from a panel of high-caliber judges from top-tier business and technology publications, as well as analyst firms, including: eWeek Channel Insider, Financial Times, Network World, PC Magazine, Tech-Gaming and Wired.

Pure Storage-s FlashArray is the industry-s first all-flash enterprise array, combining the performance, density and power of flash with enterprise array features including high availability, out-of-the-box compatibility, and enterprise class scalability — all for less than the cost of disk-centric arrays, including performance disk, flash retrofits, and flash/disk hybrids. The FlashArray is ten times faster, and ten times more space and power-efficient than disk arrays, making it ideal for high-performance workloads that include server virtualization, virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) applications, database applications (such as Online Transaction Processing (OLTP) and real-time analytics), and cloud computing.
“We are thrilled to be recognized by the Best in Biz Awards for our game-changing FlashArray,” said Scott Dietzen, CEO of Pure Storage. “Flash memory is going to revolutionize the data center in the coming decade, and Pure Storage-s unique recipe breaks the cost barrier to its broad adoption so that every enterprise and service provider can afford the performance, power, space, and reliability benefits of flash.”
