Also new is a storage-oriented generative AI “copilot for storage,” which Pure describes as “a new way to manage and protect data using natural language.” It uses telemetry and knowledge gained from Pure Storage customers to guide storage teams to optimize performance and management.
Ransomware detection improvements, SLA tweaks
Pure also boosted its anomaly detection capabilities with AI functions. Anomaly detection is used to discover threats such as ransomware, atypical activity, malicious behavior and denial-of-service attacks, by looking for performance anomalies. Pure already had ransomware detection based on anomaly detection, but the new release builds on those capabilities.
The expanded detection is built on multiple machine-learning models that analyze customer environments with historical data to look for anomalous patterns based on heuristics of performance as well as user context on how storage is used. In other words, it learns what is ordinary behavior and looks for what is out of the ordinary.
