Meta, one of the world’s leading technology innovators, embraces Pure Storage DirectFlash® technology to modernize its hyperscale storage. With 7x greater reliability than HDDs, industry-leading power efficiency, and intelligent, self-managing storage, Pure Storage empowers Meta to scale rapidly while reducing complexity and cost.
Pure Storage delivers unmatched reliability with a 7x lower failure rate, 2x longer life than disk, and an annualized return rate of 0.15%—far better than the 1.3% for off-the-shelf SSDs.
DirectFlash® Modules (DFMs) significantly cut power use by up to 75% and overall power consumption by up to 54%, compared to legacy hard disks.
Our joint hyperscaler design showcases our 15 years of cloud innovation—delivering you the same efficiency and virtualized cloud experience as the world’s largest hyperscalers.
The Pure Storage platform eliminates complexity with a unified architecture for all storage tiers, from cost-efficient archives to high-performance, mission-critical workloads.
Pure Storage offers unparalleled efficiency and the industry's lowest total cost of ownership (TCO), even at hyperscale—cutting storage costs by up to 74% for high-performance workloads like SQL and Oracle.
“Meta’s storage teams have started working closely with partners like Pure Storage, utilizing their DirectFlash Module (DFM) and DirectFlash software solution to bring reliable QLC storage to Meta.
Meta recognizes QLC flash’s potential as a viable and promising optimization opportunity for storage cost, performance, and power for data center workloads.”
