 Providing the same consistent external block storage architecture in the cloud is crucial for some customers. Some workloads can't be migrated or deployed to the cloud without consistent external block storage. As a key principle of Azure VMware Solution is to enable customers to continue to use their investments and their favorite VMware solutions running on Azure, we engaged storage providers with similar goals.

-[Pure Cloud Block Store](../azure-vmware/configure-pure-cloud-block-store.md) is a software-delivered service offered by Pure Storage, designed to provide a consistent storage experience for VMware workloads running in Azure. Pure Cloud Block Store runs the Purity Operating Environment on Azure virtual machines and can be used with Azure VMware Solution to provide external block storage. You can create volumes in Pure Cloud Block Store and mount them on Azure VMware Solution hosts using iSCSI. Pure Cloud Block Store also offers data protection features such as snapshots and replication; storage efficiency using data deduplication and compression; and familiar management capabilities to administrators who are already using Pure Storage solutions.
+[Pure Storage Cloud Azure Native](../azure-vmware/configure-azure-native-pure-storage-cloud.md) service is a joint development of Pure Storage and Microsoft bringing enterprise-grade cloud block storage into Azure. It provides Block storage as a service with features and benefits Pure Storage products are known for, while also offering built-in cloud capabilities like elastic capacity, flexible performance, and high availability, powered by a common Purity operating system as in FlashArray or FlashBlade products. PSC Azure Native service decouples storage and compute resources, allowing to benefit from enterprise-grade storage features. Customers with large data footprints can optimize their AVS resources.
+
+For Azure VMware Solution, the PSC Azure Native service uses VMware vSphere Storage APIs for Array Integration (VAAI). These hardware acceleration APIs allow ESXi hosts to offload certain storage tasks to the storage system, freeing up host resources and improving performance for operations such as cloning and zeroing. Pure Storage Cloud Azure Native removes the traditional complexity of configuring storage connections while still providing the benefits of VAAI — all directly from the vSphere Client through a built-in plugin.

+[Pure Storage Cloud Dedicated](../azure-vmware/configure-pure-cloud-block-store.md) is a software-delivered service offered by Pure Storage, designed to provide a consistent storage experience for VMware workloads running in Azure. Pure Storage Cloud Dedicated runs the Purity Operating Environment on Azure virtual machines and can be used with Azure VMware Solution to provide external block storage. You can create volumes in PSC Dedicated and mount them on Azure VMware Solution hosts as VMFS/vVols datastores. Pure Storage Cloud Dedicated also offers data protection features such as snapshots and replication; storage efficiency using data deduplication and compression; and familiar management capabilities to administrators who are already using Pure Storage solutions.
