Data warehouser Infobright takes $10M
It’s no simple task to store terabytes of information. In addition to just keeping the data safe, companies often require analytics and upkeep for their stored info. Infobright, one of the companies that provides such services, has just raised another $10 million in funding.
Infobright currently targets small and medium sized businesses, handling up to 30TB of data. And the company also released an open source “Community Version” today, at Infobright.org, which is open for anyone to use.
Flybridge Capital Partners led the round, which also included RBC Venture Partners and Sun Microsystems, which has a partnership with Infobright. The Toronto-based company has taken over $20 million to date.
