Ramping back up after Pure Accelerate as we roll into the summer months and bring on Pure's Sr. Technology Evangelist Don Poorman to catch up on his latest adventures and musings about data management trends. We first look back to the engagement and excitement surrounding his time at Cisco Live in early June before pivoting to what stood out for him around Pure's announcements. We navigate through a bit of a reality check around the promise of AI - what's real and what's at risk there. And finally, as Don's just hitting about 18 months at Pure - what stands out for him as a veteran of the industry about Pure compared to the rest. For more on what Pure can do for you, find us in-person or virtually at any of our upcoming events and webinars: https://www.purestorage.com/events.html
