"Dominick joins Pure at a pivotal moment in our growth as we expand our industry-leading data services for both traditional and cloud-native applications and containers, delivered with our Evergreen model and Pure as-a-Service subscription services," said Charles Giancarlo, Chairman and CEO, Pure Storage. "He brings a deep understanding and appreciation for where our customers are going, and we are confident in his ability to grow and lead the industry's best sales operation. I am also pleased with our preliminary Q3 financial results and look forward to sharing more details later this month."
