Tessell is a cloud-first data platform that’s changing how companies think about database management. Operating in the fastevolving Database-as-a-Service (DBaaS) space, Tessell serves businesses that are done wrestling with clunky, hands-on database operations. It’s built for today’s multi-cloud world. Whether you’re on AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, or Oracle Cloud (OCI), Tessell steps in with support across them all. The DBaaS industry is already massive valued at over $25 billion globally — and Tessell is carving out a position by focusing on mid to large-sized enterprises that need speed, reliability, and control without the usual overhead. Tessell targets both B2B and enterprise segments, serving organizations that require robust, scalable, and secure database solutions. Its customer base includes large enterprises in regulated industries (finance, healthcare, energy), technology startups and companies undergoing digital transformation.

Core Products and Services

  • Multi-Cloud DBaaS: Tessell runs fully managed databases that work smoothly across AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, and Oracle Cloud (OCI). It doesn’t matter which provider you’re using — they’ve got you covered.

  • Automated Management: No more worrying about updates or manual backups. Tessell handles patching, scaling, and even disaster recovery, all in the background so teams can focus on what really matters.

  • High-Speed Performance: Thanks to efficient NVMe storage, Tessell delivers up to 2 million IOPS. That means blazing-fast response times and top-tier reliability, without blowing up your cloud budget.

  • Security & Compliance: Data protection is baked in. With enterprise-level encryption and built-in compliance tools, your team can stay ahead of audits without scrambling at the last minute.

Business Model & Revenue Streams

  • Tailored Subscription Plans: Tessell doesn’t do one-size-fits-all. Their pricing models are designed to meet the needs of businesses at different growth stages. Whether you're a startup or a large-scale enterprise, there's a subscription that fits.

  • Usage-Based Charges : Alongside the standard plans, customers pay for what they actually use — whether that’s extra storage, computing power, backups, or advanced analytics. It’s a fair model that scales with your business.

  • Enterprise Support and Services: Bigger companies often need extra hands-on help. Tessell offers paid consulting, cloud migration assistance, and in-depth onboarding support for enterprises looking to move their systems to the cloud or fine-tune existing setups.
