Guests of the event were welcomed by FOMİNOV CONSULTİNG Director Ayten Mustafayeva, who introduced the keynote speaker, Alexander Kuzmin, Technical Lead of Pure Storage in the CIS region.
In his introduction, the Pure Storage representative highly praised FOMINOV CONSULTING participation in the 29th Conference of the Parties to the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP29) held in Baku, and also spoke about the Evergreen data storage platform presented at COP29. The speaker noted that data centers today are experiencing huge needs for energy consumption and storage space for growing volumes of data, especially against the backdrop of increasing demands in the field of artificial intelligence. Evergreen’s innovative vision from Pure Storage is a special approach to storage capacity management that allows you to avoid additional costs for equipment replacement and the associated planned downtime. Pure Storage not only guarantees its customers an availability level of 99.9999%, but also helps optimize resource use and provides a buffer against technology obsolescence. This platform, in particular, allows the company to take the leading position in the reports of the analytical agency Gartner for the 11th year in a row for primary data storage systems and for the 4th year in a row for storage with file and object access. Alexander Kuzmin also emphasized that the company’s portfolio includes data storage systems for any area of application and spoke about the nuances of automating storage systems with the help of a solution such as Pure Storage Fusion, which provides the ability to use storage systems as a Service for each individual user. In conclusion of the presentation, A. Kuzmin introduced the guests of the seminar to the leading Kubernetes data platform for corporate environments, which is Portworx. Portworx from Pure Storage enables automation, protection and consolidation of data for modern applications in any on-premises, public or hybrid cloud environment.
Alexander Kuzmin also highly praised the achievements of FOMİNOV CONSULTİNG in popularizing Pure Storage solutions in the Azerbaijani market and expressed confidence in the development of productive cooperation in the future and the implementation of many new and significant projects in the field of data storage in our country. After the break, the official part of the event continued with the presentation of new innovative Pure Storage products in the field of data storage, which became available in our market in the past year, which was held by FOMİNOV CONSULTİNG technical specialist Rovshan Agayev.
