This research report explains how Pure Storage systems deliver up to 85% energy savings compared to competitive all-flash arrays. It outlines a methodology based on “apples-to-apples” capacity and performance comparisons, validated by third-party lifecycle assessments. Key drivers of the energy advantage include superior data reduction, high-density DirectFlash modules, and system-level hardware/software efficiency. Charts (pages 2–4) illustrate dramatic reductions in annual energy use and GHG emissions. Additional sections detail always-on data reduction, NVMe-optimized architecture, and long-term sustainability benefits made possible through innovation and R&D focus.
