VMblog had the chance to speak with Tegile ahead of VMworld 2014.  And while at the show, we were fortunate to have the opportunity to meet up with Rob Commins, VP of Marketing at the company.  If you made it out to VMworld this year, hopefully you had a chance to visit their booth.

Tegile is a company pioneering a new generation of affordable feature-rich storage arrays that are dramatically faster, and can store more data than standard arrays.  These guys offer a unique metadata handling technology called IntelliFlash, allowing Tegile arrays to deliver caching and on the fly de-duplication and compression for primary storage.

VMblog had the opportunity to see Unitrends first hand at their booth.  Unitrends, a leader in the IT protection and disaster recovery industry, showcased their unique multi-environment arsenal of backup, archiving and disaster recovery solutions,  providing customers with the technology they need to protect and preserve their physical, virtual, and cloud environments at an affordable price.
