Pure Storage FlashBlade Accelerates Time-to-Market for EDA Workloads

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., May 3, 2022 — (PRNewswire) — Pure Storage® (NYSE: PSTG), the IT pioneer that delivers the world's most advanced data storage technology and services, is empowering  electronic design automation (EDA) workloads and accelerating next-gen chip design.

Modern EDA chip development requires high-performance storage that can serve thousands of powerful servers and extremely fast networks in all dimensions of concurrency—throughput, IOPS, latency, fast deletes, capacity and metadata—to eliminate bottlenecks that slow data access. While legacy storage architectures add unnecessary complexity and either saturate or scale inefficiently when faced with modern EDA workloads, Pure FlashBlade was designed from the ground up to meet the high-concurrency requirements of semiconductor and EDA workloads. As a result, 50 percent of the top 10 semiconductor companies rely on the solution to remain competitive and expedite time to market.

By consolidating two traditionally separate storage paradigms—file and object storage—into one performant data solution, FlashBlade enables organizations to replace siloed collections of data with a single scale-out storage solution that delivers multidimensional performance at scale. This combination of file and object storage protocols with the low latency, massive parallelism, and high throughput capabilities of enterprise all flash storage, make it the ideal storage solution for EDA workloads.

Pure Storage is continuing to grow its EDA footprint with more companies than ever now using FlashBlade for analytics and technical computing to expedite modern chip design processes as their chip design business units grow rapidly. In fact, software developers are seeing workloads finish more than 5x faster than the status quo with FlashBlade and benefiting from up to 2.5:1 data reduction through compression. Customer examples include:

FlashBlade's simplicity, performance and scalability are driving tomorrow's next-generation chip designs and its ability to scale input/output (I/O) efficiently under massive parallelism is making a significant impact on semiconductor designers globally. By speeding up all aspects of the design flow — from RTL design to tapeout — FlashBlade helps customers release products faster, with higher quality and lower cost, and improves engineering productivity with the ability to do more designs at the same time. Additionally, customers can take advantage of FlashBlade at Equinix with Microsoft Azure for EDA, to leverage cloud-adjacent storage for EDA workloads.
