Pure Storage delivered a top-line beat w record earnings that just missed consensus. Some of my thoughts included in SiliconANGLE & theCUBE’s coverage, but here’s more: - Hyperscale shipments exceeded Pure’s full-year target (2 EB) by Q3, with additional growth expected in Q4. - Impressive growth continues in its as-a-service/subscription business - Evergreen//One and modern virtualization (CBS + Portworx) continue to scale, with Evergreen TCB up 25% YoY and subscription revenue climbing to $430M (45% of total revenue) - Enterprise Data Cloud expanded into Azure through Pure Storage Cloud, delivering cloud-native block storage with unified data management across on-prem and public cloud. - Portworx by Pure Storage more front & center, growing across AI and cloud-native workloads - Strongest portfolio it’s ever had - Taking a very pragmatic approach to AI My only concern is impact of current out-of-control NAND pricing (esp QLC) might have on demand (or margin), but that’s an industry-wide issue, not Pure — this is where Pure’s DFM approach gives them better control than their competitors. Watch this space. Great Q overall, strong outlook. Wall Street’s initial reaction was an over-reaction. Congrats to Charles Giancarlo & the team! https://lnkd.in/eqD-pTVm

I hadn’t really formed a strong opinion on storage vendors pivoting into “data‑centric platforms” until I read Keith Townsend comment on a recent post. He pointed out that most storage companies don’t actually own the relationships with platform, developer, or data teams. So even when they do have an interesting solution, they’re not the first call. They get impatient, shift strategies, and unintentionally compound the trust gap with exactly the people they need. That unlocked it for me: sometimes the strategy isn’t “wrong” it’s landing in a relationship you haven’t earned yet. In my world, “earning” that relationship means you’ve: 1. Moved something that matters for them (unblocked a deal, reduced risk, created real revenue). 2. Run one motion predictably enough that they trust your operating rhythm. 3. Shown up with so much relevance that they actually want you in the room when strategy is being discussed. In other words: you’ve proven, through outcomes and consistency, that you’re safe to bet cycles and political capital on. Until then, changing strategy every quarter isn’t agility, it just broadcasts that you haven’t earned that relationship yet. Great insights from this thread, it definitely got my gears turning.
