Guarantee is good news for Flash users

Tegile Systems has introduced the IntelliCare™ Flash 5 Guarantee, a multi-point program designed to give customers additional confidence in their Tegile storage purchase for the effective service life of their array.

Focused on the top five principles of most enterprise technology purchases, the Flash 5 Guarantee puts in writing minimum levels customers can expect from Tegile arrays in areas of performance, cost, data reduction, endurance and availability. If during the 5-year guarantee window, any purchased or leased Tegile array fails to meet one or more of these promised criteria, Tegile will remedy the situation by deploying Pro-Serve Engineers to directly engage with customers in order to correct the outlying issue, including providing additional or replacement equipment at no cost, if deemed necessary.

Guaranteed minimum levels of each and every Tegile array include:
1. Performance levels from a latency standpoint that are 5 times faster than legacy storage
2. Pricing no higher than €5/RAW GB
3. Data reduction rates of 5:1 leveraging Tegile’s deduplication and compression technologies
4. 5 years of heavy-write SSD endurance and free controller upgrades after five years’ of service life
5. “5 Nines” availability (99.999 percent, equal to 4 minutes/year) with active-active controllers

"The Tegile IntelliCare Flash 5 Guarantee is a differentiator in the marketplace, intended to help customers feel confident that we will ensure they achieve the optimal levels of performance, cost, data reduction, endurance and availability that we promise them," said Paul Silver, vice president, EMEA, Tegile. "While there are others in the industry that may make similar promises, not all of them offer as comprehensive a guarantee, for as long as we offer it, or as a written agreement. It is also important to remember that these are the minimum promises for our entire portfolio of Intelligent Flash Arrays. Truth be told, our customers should expect to receive better than promised results on nearly every point with their Tegile purchase, with much better results depending on the application they deploy their Tegile array to support."
