Hello everyone, I'm Anand Ramchandani a Senior Product Manager at Pure. Imagine being able to automate all your infrastructure workflows ¡ª from provisioning to
01:00:12
protection, all in a single place. We're excited to introduce a new capability in Pure1? that helps IT teams simplify complex operational tasks
01:00:23
and drive consistency across their environments ¡ª without actually relying on fragmented tools or manual processes. Today's IT
01:00:31
environments span multiple layers, infrastructure, virtualization, cloud platforms, and a bunch of business systems, each managed by different
01:00:40
teams, tools, and processes. When it comes to operations like provisioning, protection, or recovery, teams often have to bridge these systems manually.
01:00:51
The result? Automation is difficult to implement, harder to scale, and nearly impossible to govern effectively. Even mature IT teams
01:01:01
face common challenges: Siloed tools that don't integrate natively. A lack of transparency, auditability, and control across automation. Slow, error-prone processes that vary
01:01:15
from one request to the next. This makes it difficult to deliver IT services reliably ¡ª and it increases the risk of inconsistency,
01:01:26
compliance gaps, and missed SLAs. These challenges affect day-to-day operations in real ways: Application deployments get delayed by cross-team dependencies,
01:01:37
and kind of disconnected workflows. Provisioning is inconsistent, which leads to configuration drift. Disaster recovery is often avoided because running tests is
01:01:47
complex and time-consuming. And the core issue isn't just automating one task, it's about managing secure, repeatable automation across environments.
01:01:59
That's where most existing solutions fall short. With Workflow Orchestration in Pure1, we're bringing orchestration directly into the Pure1 interface ¡ª where
01:02:08
customers already monitor and manage their infrastructure ¡ª enabling teams to automate operational tasks with intelligence, consistency, and full
01:02:19
infrastructure awareness. Some of the key capabilities are a centralized orchestration hub in Pure1. Customers can now build and manage
01:02:28
workflows right within Pure1 ¡ª spanning across FlashArray?, FlashBlade?, Pure Fusion?, and a bunch of third-party applications. It's one unified interface to automate
01:02:38
storage operations, VM tasks, and system interactions. Some of the built-in product integrations that we're offering, we've built native
01:02:47
integrations across the É«¿Ø´«Ã½ platform, including REST APIs for FA, FB, Fusion, and Pure1. These integrations eliminate the need to script or manually
01:02:59
configure every single step, making it faster and safer to scale automation. To help teams get started quickly, we're also launching a curated
01:03:09
library of workflow templates including: SQL and Oracle Database provisioning a fleet health scoring and alerts, disaster recovery failover and failback, volume tagging based
01:03:21
on threat detections. These workflows are completely customizable. Every workflow is version controlled and auditable,
01:03:31
with support for role-based access control so teams can safely delegate tasks without losing oversight. Workflow Orchestration in
01:03:39
Pure1 gives customers a faster, more reliable way to run their IT operations: Accelerated service delivery with consistent automation,
01:03:48
improved governance with built-in logging and approval flows, increased operational agility by removing all manual touchpoints, lower risk by actually replacing scripts
01:03:59
with standardized infrastructure-aware workflows, and ultimately, we're making orchestration more accessible, empowering our customers
01:04:08
to automate with confidence. This is just the beginning of how Pure is evolving to simplify IT operations. We're thrilled to bring Workflow Orchestration to you,
01:04:18
and we can't wait to see how our customers use it to transform the way they work. There's no separate setup required ¡ª just log into Pure1,
01:04:27
navigate to the workflow section, and you can start using the prebuilt templates right away. If you're looking to simplify operations through automation,
01:04:36
increase agility by eliminating manual steps, and reduce risk with consistent governed workflows, go explore Pure1's workflow
