History

Tegile Systems was founded in 2010 by Rohit Kshetrapal, Rajesh Nair, Justin Cheen, and Alok Agrawal. In February 2012, Tegile came out of stealth mode when it announced a product line called Zebi.[1] Tegile investors include August Capital, SanDisk, and Western Digital.[citation needed] In 2013, a $32 million investment included Meritech Capital Partners.[2] In May, 2015, a round of $70 million was announced, with additional investors Capricorn Investment Group, Cross Creek Advisors and Pine River Capital Management.[3] By the end of 2015, Tegile had an estimated 360 employees.[4]

Technology

Tegile developed what the company calls IntelliFlash Metadata Acceleration, which is a way to store metadata on high speed solid state disks, apart from the underlying data.[18] Tegile hybrid and all-flash storage arrays use an implementation of the ZFS file system. Tegile made some changes to the way data is written to the file system, specifically how metadata is handled.[citation needed] IntelliFlash supports both block and file access, including iSCSI, Fibre Channel (FC), Network File System (NFS), and Server Message Block (SMB) protocols. Tegile provides a storage management tool.[citation needed] Tegile arrays support inline data deduplication and data compression.

Some competitors are noted as Nimble Storage and Tintri.[1][19]
