Partner POV | Why Physical AI Demands a New Data Architecture
Physical AI is revolutionizing industries by integrating AI models with real-world machines, demanding resilient, high-performance data infrastructures. Unlike digital AI, its failure impacts production and safety. This paradigm shift requires a data-first architecture, emphasizing portability, security, and scalability to ensure seamless, deterministic operations in dynamic environments.
Pure Storage Pure1 Manage and VM Analytics Lab
Helping customers modernize their environment and giving them access to experience next generation data center tools as they evaluate solutions in the WWT Advanced Technology Center has been at the front of WWT's go to market since we started the ATC.
Pure Storage Pure1®, with its cloud-connected capabilities, has to lead the way in enabling IT teams to improve operational efficiency, reduce costs, and respond faster to business needs.
This lab will explore Pure1 and also give users access to Pure's innovative approach to gaining end to end knowledge of a VMware environment from the Virtual Machine back to the storage it lives on. VM Analytics is a free software deployment from Pure Storage that works as part of the Pure1 Management Suite of software. VM Analytics is now available and can be experienced in WWT's ATC.
Everpure FlashBlade//EXA Hands-On Lab
Get hands-on with Everpure FlashBlade//EXA, the scale-out unstructured-data platform built for AI and HPC workloads. In this Foundations lab you will work in a live Purity//FB management interface to navigate the dashboard, explore file systems and NFS policies, analyze performance and capacity, check hardware health, inspect system settings, and provision a new file system end-to-end.
