It is true that Kyndryl and Pure Storage have signed a new global alliance, which will see the two tech firms join their expertise and operational experience to deliver mission-critical capabilities to enterprises.
As part of the agreement, Kyndryl will become a key delivery partner for Pure, expanding on already integrated solutions and increasing its existing Pure skills and capabilities to drive transformative business outcomes for customers.
Together, Pure and Kyndryl seek to deliver jointly optimized solutions to address the complex challenges enterprises face related to application and infrastructure modernization, automation, multi-cloud management, containerization, and more. In doing so, the organizations aim to enable enterprises with cyber resiliency elements natively at the storage layer to enable cloud-based applications coupled with data portability in the cloud or on-premises.
“Our alliance with Pure Storage can help customers identify and take advantage of new ways to manage, secure, and analyze their mission-critical multi-cloud business data,” said Stephen Leonard, Global Alliances & Partnerships Leader, Kyndryl. “We look forward to working with Pure to deliver advanced capabilities that customers can use to modernize and transform their businesses.”
Partnering with Pure augments and supports Kyndryl’s approach by providing advanced storage and data management solutions grounded in Pure’s ethos of simplicity, reliability, agility, and innovation that sets the company apart from other infrastructure providers.
“We’ve fostered a true collaboration with Kyndryl that will address our shared customers’ business challenges and drive the transformation and modernization they are undertaking,” said Wendy Stusrud, VP, Global Partner Sales, Pure Storage. “Our strategic relationship will provide market-leading solutions that enable customers to maximize their data assets across their organizations with confidence.”
Also, all new and enhanced joint offerings can be delivered as-a-service and charged on a consumption basis.
