Pure Storage Certified FlashArray Architect Professional

Pure Storage · advanced · 90 minutes

In developmentThis course is still being brought to our full standard. The questions and notes are usable, but they have not yet been checked line by line against the vendor’s own training.

Designing and implementing on FlashArray: the Purity architecture and why latency stays consistent, choosing a model from the workload and sizing on effective capacity and peak rather than average load, connectivity zoned to both controllers, then protection groups, the recovery point ladder from asynchronous through ActiveDR to synchronous ActiveCluster with its mediator, uniform against non-uniform access, SafeMode immutability and Pure1 forecasting.

Two sample questions

Two of the 180, with the answer and the explanation.

1. What does rehearsing a failover reveal?

  1. The capacity the replica requires in practice
  2. The latency between the two sites
  3. The steps nobody had written down — correct
  4. The retention on the snapshots

Why: A plan nobody has run is a document rather than a capability.

2. What does VAAI offload?

  1. Offload to array — correct
  2. The host CPU scheduler
  3. The fabric zoning
  4. The DNS lookups

Why: VAAI offloads operations like copy and zeroing to the array, freeing the host.
