In the summer of 2014, Pure Storage commissioned Forrester Consulting to conduct a Total Economic Impact (TEI) study to examine the potential return on investment (ROI) enterprises may realise by deploying Pure Storage FlashArray FA-400 Series storage solutions. The purpose of this study is to provide readers with a framework to evaluate the potential financial impact of Pure Storage within their organisations.
To better understand the benefits, costs, and risks associated with an investment in Pure Storage, Forrester conducted in-depth interviews with four Pure Storage customers. For a brief description of each customer, see the Analysis section. According to Pure Storage, its FlashArray FA-400 Series is an economical all-flash storage solution for virtually any workload. Purity is the Pure Storage operating environment built from the ground up for flash. Purity is provided at no additional cost with every FlashArray and runs consistently across the entire FlashArray hardware family. For more details on the Pure Storage solution, see Appendix A.
Forrester created a composite Organisation to describe the TEI of Pure Storage. This composite Organisation is a global, midmarket ($100 million to $1 billion) enterprise that distributes and services its products. It is headquartered and has operations in North America with multisite operations in EMEA and APAC. Forrester has projected costs and benefits over three years in this study. For more information, see the section titled: The Composite Organisation.
