CloudPhysics raises $15 million in Series C funding

CloudPhysics is a provider of a SaaS performance and capacity analytics solution, the first in its segment to leverage the informations collected for its customer datacenters to improve the intelligence and effectiveness of the product itself.

The company, founded in November 2011 from John Blumenthal and Irfan Ahmad, both former VMware employees, but publicly presented only in July 2012, announced today a new Series C funding of $15M that comes on top of a $10M Series B funding achieved in August 2013 and led by Kleiner Perkins Caufield and of a previous $2.5M funding from angel investors and the Mayfield Fund, announced in August 2012, for a total funding of $27.5M in 3 years.

This new funding, that sees Jafco Ventures to support Kleiner Perkins Caufield and the Mayfield Fund in this new round, will be invested to furtherly improve the storage monitoring side of the product, launched today as a new Storage Analytics, and to develop the custom reporting area where CloudPhysics is already quite strong with the ability to create infographics and scorecards with a more “high level” aim.
