FlashStack and AIRI We also offer two all-flash converged infrastructure solutions, FlashStack and AIRI (AI-Ready Infrastructure). FlashStack, a joint solution with Cisco, bundles FlashArray and FlashBlade with Cisco UCS Servers and Networking to deliver a complete full-stack solution. AIRI, a joint solution with Nvidia, combines FlashBlade with Nvidia DGX AI Servers to create a turnkey infrastructure for artificial intelligence workloads. Subscription Services Our innovative subscription services deliver a full range of services to meet the IT and data needs for our customers and primarily include our Evergreen Storage subscription, PaaS, and Cloud Block Store. Evergreen Storage Subscription and Pure1 Our Evergreen Storage subscription is often sold together with our Cloud Data Infrastructure solutions and significantly extends the life of our solutions. Our Evergreen Storage subscription eliminates disruptive data migrations and downtime through software upgrades and updates, onsite technical support, and the option of receiving hardware upgrades. This subscription includes Pure1, which is a cloud-based management and support offering that enables our customers, our support staff, and our partners to seamlessly and securely collaborate to maximize the reliability of our platform while minimizing management overhead and cost to the customer. This cloud-based platform removes the need for dedicated storage management infrastructure, enabling customers to monitor global storage operations from a mobile device and simplifying integration with other data center management solutions. Pure1's Global Insight technology also employs cutting-edge, real-time analytics and machine learning technologies to predictively identify potential issues enabling our support organization to proactively resolve incidents before they arise - leading to higher uptime and availability for our data platform. Pure1 META also enables customers to predict and receive intelligent advice on workload, interaction, and capacity performance. Pure as-a-Service PaaS enables customers to subscribe to defined services for their storage needs based on performance and capacity whether on-premise or in the public cloud. PaaS utilizes our Cloud Data Infrastructure and software technology, providing the customer with flexibility in how they consume and pay for their work-load needs. This includes enabling a customer to move their workloads between on-premise and cloud environments using our Cloud Block Store technology. PaaS includes a Service Catalog aimed at revolutionizing the industry by publishing transparent pricing for on- premise and hybrid cloud storage delivered as-a-Service, providing a seamless purchasing model for customers. Cloud Block Store Cloud Block Store provides industrial-strength block storage services, running natively in the public cloud on top of basic cloud storage. Cloud Block Store is based upon the same Purity OE software that is used in on-premise environments, enabling customers to easily achieve hybrid cloud workflows. Our Cloud Data Services are software-delivered, require no hardware running in the public cloud or internet co-location data centers, and are designed to be multi-cloud, presently supporting Amazon Web Services. Cloud Block Store provides customers with a consistent storage experience and flexibility to operate a hybrid cloud model, leveraging both on-premise and public cloud infrastructure. Growth Strategies Key elements of our growth strategy include: • Relentlessly Innovate and Maintain Technology Leadership. We will continue to invest in product innovation and technology leadership and plan to enhance our flash-optimized software and hardware portfolio, including FlashBlade, FlashArray//C and cloud-native applications, and cloud-based data management to lead the modernization of disk to flash storage. We will continue to develop strategic relationships with technology vendors to expand the ecosystem and allow integration of our platform with their offerings, delivering streamlined solution outcomes to our customers. 7
