The name Leil is derived from an ancient and sacred word in Estonian.
It comes from ‘breath’ or ‘spirit’ in proto-Uralic, the language group that Estonian belongs to. This symbolises the very essence of life because the sauna is our traditional place of birth and the sauna experience has long been associated with the whole concept of rebirth.
We are working hard to revitalise, redo, and correct many issues related to the concept of large-scale data storage ranging in petabytes, which aligns perfectly with Leil Storage mission.
Estonians call leil a steam generated by pouring water onto hot rocks in a sauna.
There’s no sauna without leil – and hopefully, there’ll be no proper large-scale data storage without Leil Storage too. Estonia, the country with the most unicorns per capita in Europe, has not been too active in the field of storage and that’s the gap we strive to fill.
