Recognized Highest in Execution and Furthest in Vision for Second Consecutive Year
As enterprises continue to invest heavily in AI models, applications, and compute, many discover that the true barrier scaling AI is fragmented data. To deploy AI successfully, organizations must shift to a Data Primacy architecture—where trusted, governed, and contextualized data, rather than proprietary application-centric data stores, serves as the foundation for agentic workflow. By unifying policy and governance, semantics and context directly with operational data, Everpure transforms enterprise data into an intelligent, trusted, real-time asset.
"Data Primacy will be the future of IT architectures in the AI era, and we believe the Gartner recognition validates Everpure's innovation to make enterprise data truly AI-ready," said Everpure CEO Charles Giancarlo. "To scale AI, organizations need an IT architecture where trusted, governed, contextualized data powers every application and AI agent across the enterprise; this is precisely what we enable with the Everpure Platform and Everpure Data Intelligence."
Data Management Platform for the AI Era
Gartner defines enterprise storage platforms (ESPs) as the market consisting of products and services designed to unify support for diverse block, file and object storage workloads and use cases. ESP products and services include appliances, software-defined storage (SDS) and storage as a service (STaaS). An ESP includes data management and data storage services provided through a centrally managed, multidomain control plane. They enable organizations to leverage AI-powered telemetry for platform structured and unstructured workloads2.
Everpure believes its positioning validates a broader industry shift toward this model. Everpure's Data Primacy approach reframes data management for the AI era—reducing operational friction and helping enterprises manage information as a trusted asset across hybrid environments through a global data plane and intelligent control plane.
Platform Innovations Built for the AI Era
Recent updates to the Everpure Platform enable organizations to modernize infrastructure, automate management, and prepare enterprise data for AI workloads:
- Everpure Data Intelligence™: Makes fragmented data usable for AI by discovering, classifying, contextualizing, and governing data at the source across Everpure, cloud, SaaS, and third-party environments.
- Enterprise Data Cloud Enhancements: Unifies data, policy, and semantics across hybrid estates to streamline operations and enforce consistent governance.
- AI Data Stream: Automates data discovery, preparation, and delivery pipelines, making real-time information immediately accessible to AI applications.
- Cyber Resilience Innovations: Strengthens protection and speeds recovery from cyber threats to ensure continuous business resilience.
Customer Validation
We believe the Gartner recognition is supported by customer feedback on Gartner Peer Insights™. As of August 7, 2026, Everpure has an Overall Rating of 4.9 out of 5 stars in the Enterprise Storage Platforms market, with
