Massdriver – an extensible cloud operations platform with an intuitive visual interface that enables self-service and reduces infrastructure burdens for software engineers and cloud ops teams deploying cloud-native applications without lock-in – recently announced it has secured $8 million in funding to “smash the barriers holding back engineering teams worldwide.” This funding round fuels Massdriver’s mission to make cloud infrastructure easy, open, and approachable for every engineering team through an agnostic solution.
The funding round was led by Builders VC and it includes 1984 Ventures, Y Combinator, Uncorrelated Ventures, Page One Ventures, Soma Capital, Hack VC, and experienced technical founder angels. As part of a commitment to open-source, Massdriver is an early supporter of the OpenTF initiative aiming to counter HashiCorp to keep Terraform as a community-driven infrastructure as code tool.
Cloud-native applications require integrating diverse cloud services, a tedious process plagued by complexity. And Massdriver combines decades of cloud expertise into a single tool to streamline cloud infrastructure development like never before.
This platform empowers engineers to deploy infrastructure securely and confidently without extensive expertise. And builders can manage databases, machine learning pipelines, and serverless computing with ease.
Hundreds of developers have already tapped into Massdriver’s power, enabling engineers to spend more time writing code and less time operating it, increasing their delivery cadence while also strengthening security and compliance. And the company’s secret weapon is decades of cloud mastery distilled into guardrails and automation that accelerate development velocity. With Massdriver, you gain velocity, reliability, observability, and compliance to deliver world-class products rapidly.
This funding round offers the fuel to accelerate Massdriver’s mission of empowering teams to defy convention.
