Bluebricks: $4.5 Million (Seed) Raised To Transform Cloud Infrastructure Management

By Amit Chowdhry • Oct 1, 2024

Bluebricks, a cloud management platform based in Tel Aviv, announced a $4.5 million seed round, which will accelerate its technology and product development efforts. Flint Capital and Glilot Capital Partners led the funding round, which included investors such as Yochay Ettun, CEO of cnvrg.io (acquired by Intel), and Raz Shaked, Head of DevOps at Wiz.

Bluebricks is already working with a number of notable clients, including unicorns, demonstrating the platform’s ability to serve high-growth, technology-driven companies.

Many traditional infrastructure-as-code solutions require manual intervention and high maintenance from dedicated SREs or DevOps teams, which has become a very costly function for many engineering teams. As complexity grows and more stakeholders are involved, risks significantly increase, and automating infrastructure updates without granulated protection can have unintended and potentially damaging consequences, especially for larger enterprises.

Bluebricks takes on these challenges with its proprietary Atomic Infrastructure technology, which automatically fragments infrastructure management into small and reusable blueprints. And this approach reduces the blast radius of changes, providing guardrails to various stakeholders, and reducing catastrophe exposure while enabling true hyper-automation. Plus, Bluebricks’ solution sets the foundation for AI-driven software delivery. Unlike current solutions that treat infrastructure code as a monolith, Bluebricks’ technology allows for granular control, ownership, and cost-efficient, policy-driven provisioning automation, all accessible through a single pane of glass.

Bluebricks was launched by a team of accomplished tech leaders: serial entrepreneur Idan Yalovich, who previously co-founded Zest, (an AI-driven enterprise search company acquired by WalkMe in 2021), Nitzan Gindi (an experienced product leader with a track record of acquiring and nurturing Fortune 500 customers), and Pini Vaknin (a tech leader with a proven track record overseeing cloud infrastructure and operations within large-scale SaaS and enterprise ecosystems with strict reliability standards).

KEY QUOTES:

“By 2027, more than 70% of enterprises will have adopted industry cloud platforms. Following the generative AI breakthrough that the industry is experiencing, cloud infrastructure management must adjust its practices and adopt new workflows. Generative AI-powered solutions will make software programming available on-demand. However, when it comes to cloud infrastructure, things are much more sensitive and organizations must set solid ground. Otherwise they’ll lose competitive advantage and start sinking. At Bluebricks, our Atomic Infrastructure technology enables enterprises to become AI-ready instantly and at an infinite scale.”

  • Idan Yalovich, co-founder and CEO of Bluebricks

“The technical depth of the Atomic Infrastructure™️ solution, built by a team with an unparalleled understanding of the pain points in this space, is exactly what the industry has been missing. Their ability to combine automated provisioning with precise control reduces the risks associated with scaling complex cloud environments. We’re excited to partner with Bluebricks and are confident that their innovative approach and exceptional team will establish them as a market leader.”

  • David Feldman, Principal at Flint Capital

“We are thrilled to invest in Bluebricks because of their exceptional team, whose deep experience and vision are driving innovation in the Cloud Infrastructure space. As the adoption of Infrastructure as Code (IaC) continues to grow at an unprecedented rate, the need for more efficient and scalable solutions has never been greater. Bluebricks is at the forefront of this shift and will enable organizations to deploy, manage, and govern code automatically and consistently.”
