Welcome to the official wiki for the Pure Server Simulator — a high-fidelity, CLI-driven emulation of Pure Storage FlashArray systems, built for realism, precision, and technical mastery.
This project isn't just a mockup. It's a full-stack simulation of controller behavior, Purity OS installation, USB-based provisioning, and 3D visualization of FlashArray hardware. Whether you're testing upgrade flows, training ops teams, or just geeking out over storage architecture, this simulator delivers the experience without the hardware.
-
CLI Interface: A responsive, command-rich shell that mirrors Pure’s native environment.
-
Purity OS Workflow: From USB detection to controller setup, every step is modeled with care.
-
3D FlashArray Model: A visual replica of the chassis, drives, and controllers—built for immersion.
-
NDU Simulation (Coming Soon): Non-disruptive upgrades with controller failover and rollback logic.
-
Consolidation Engine (Coming Soon): Merge arrays, migrate workloads, and rebalance resources.

Curious minds who want to explore Pure Storage logic without touching a datacenter
Because real-world infrastructure deserves real-world simulation. This project was built to push beyond documentation and into interaction—where every command, upgrade, and migration feels like the real thing.
