Pure Storage recently enhanced its FlashStack Converged Infrastructure (CI) offering will now be available with Microsoft SQL Server and Citrix XenDesktop, adding to previously published configurations for Cisco UCS Blade Servers, Cisco Nexus switches, VMware vSphere 5 and VMware Horizon 6.

The FlashStack CI is a flexible, all-flash converged infrastructure solution that combines the latest in compute, network, storage hardware and virtualization software, into a single, integrated architecture that speeds time to deployment, lowers overall IT costs and reduces deployment risk. It streamlines the implementation of all-flash infrastructure for enterprises and service providers.

“Since the launch of FlashStack CI in December 2014, the response from our channel and customer base about our CI solutions has been resoundingly positive. By bringing new converged infrastructure offerings to market based on all-flash, partners are equipped to support their customers’ transition to an all-flash future. We’ve attracted new global partners through the proven-success of our solution. By introducing Microsoft SQL Server and Citrix XenDesktop configurations, FlashStack CI equips our customers and partners with the performance, simplicity, high-availability and reliability they need to increase revenue opportunities and lead their respective markets.” said Michael Sotnick, Vice President of Global Channels and Alliances at Pure Storage.

FlashStack CI streamlines the selection, planning, design, implementation and support of a complete data center infrastructure stack powered by virtualization and flash. In addition, FlashStack CI eliminates performance bottlenecks, increases infrastructure reliability and provides dramatic savings in power, cooling and rack space.

The Pure Storage FlashStack CI for Citrix XenDesktop 7.6 delivers virtual applications and desktops to allow enterprises to securely mobilize business at the speed of flash memory. The configurations can easily scale up to 7,500 production-ready VMs in a single rack. This allows for the virtualization of mobile workspaces and applications with high performance, low latency and a quality user experience to drive employee productivity without interruption or downtime.

The new FlashStack CI Partner Accreditation makes FlashStack sales opportunities available to an expanded group of Pure Storage P3 partners and provides new potential revenue growth opportunities to a wider group of partners.
