CONFLUENT RAISES A SERIES B
by Jay Kreps July 08, 2015
Jay Kreps
It is my pleasure to announce that Confluent has raised a Series B funding
of $24M, led by Index Ventures and joined by our Series A investor,
Benchmark. Mike Volpi of Index Ventures will be joining our board of
directors.
Confluent is still a young company, but my co-founders and I have been
working on Kafka for the last five years. It has been amazing to see it grow
from a prototype to a system that handles hundreds of billions of events
per day in some of the biggest companies in the world, and to see it
flourish as an Apache project with contributions from people all over the
world.
Our vision then was very much what it is today—to create an open source
platform that would let us harness the kind of vast real-time streams of
data that companies are beginning to grapple with. Founding the company was
a way to help advance that, and this funding is the next step in that
journey.
One of the most exciting parts of this has been the huge groundswell of
enthusiasm around streaming data. It is amazing to see Kafka being used at
the center of an ecosystem with so much innovation, and incredibly exciting
to talk to our users and customers about the ambitious projects they are
undertaking. When you raise money people often ask what it will be for, and
in this case it's quite easy to answer: it will be for all the things you've
asked us for. That means additional work in Kafka on scalability, security,
and simplicity; management and monitoring tools to help run at scale; and
connectors and clients to help hook up all the many systems people use Kafka
with.
Last but not least, our commitment to open source remains central to who we
are and what Confluent is building. We believe true open source communities
produce the best software, and we're proud of the flourishing and diverse
Kafka community that has developed. We promise to be a good citizen in that
community and to continue our work to develop the project. | n****l
