Everpure announced on March 11 2026 that it is adding ActiveCluster support for file workloads to its Enterprise Data Cloud platform. The new capability extends the company’s policy‑driven data mobility to file data, allowing organizations to keep files continuously available and move them freely across on‑premises, edge, and cloud environments without disruption.
ActiveCluster for file is built into Everpure’s Fusion software and runs within the Purity operating environment, giving customers a single, centrally managed policy that automatically enforces availability and mobility across the entire fleet. The upgrade requires no new hardware or downtime, making it a low‑friction enhancement for existing customers.
The launch follows Everpure’s March 5 rebrand from Pure Storage and the recent acquisition of 1touch, a data‑intelligence and orchestration company. Together, the rebrand, acquisition, and new file‑mobility feature reinforce Everpure’s strategy to lock in enterprise customers through software‑defined data mobility and accelerate adoption of its subscription‑based Evergreen portfolio, which includes Evergreen//One and Evergreen//Flex.
Shawn Hansen, VP and GM of FlashBlade and FlashArray, said, "Legacy vendors are still tethered to the infrastructure‑first designs of the 1990s. When files are locked to siloed hardware, migrations are disruptive, and mobility is manual. ActiveCluster changes that." He added, "We've moved from hardware‑to‑data thinking to an app‑to‑data model as a unified platform, at the speed your business demands." Charles Giancarlo, CEO, noted, "Everpure reflects the company we have become. It captures the power of our Enterprise Data Cloud architecture and Evergreen adaptability, reinforcing what has distinguished us in the industry as we continue to redefine the future of data management."
By extending ActiveCluster to file workloads, Everpure broadens its data‑management platform beyond block storage, positioning itself as a comprehensive data cloud solution for AI‑driven and high‑performance workloads. The feature addresses a market need for seamless data mobility and availability that competitors such as Dell EMC, HPE, and NetApp also target for block storage, but Everpure’s policy‑driven automation and integration with Purity give it a differentiated advantage.
The feature will be generally available in Q2 2026. Because it requires no new hardware or downtime, the rollout is expected to be smooth for existing customers, further strengthening Everpure’s value proposition as a low‑friction, subscription‑based data cloud platform.
