Hydrolix secures $80 million investment to enhance big data cloud security, observability, and analytics.
The $80 million Series C investment round that Hydrolix announced had closed, allowing the company to expand on more cloud platforms for observability and security enhancements.
According to the manufacturer, Portland-based Hydrolix addresses the issue of ever-growing log data quantities and the existential requirement to conduct analytics on that data in order to satisfy strict security, compliance, and service performance requirements.
Co-founder and CEO of Hydrolix, Marty Kagan, mentioned that the funding round builds on the fact that over 400 new customers have joined Hydrolix in the past year. He pointed out that successful global streaming events, such as the Olympics and the Super Bowl, along with the launch of cloud platforms like AWS and integrations with ecosystems like Splunk, Databricks and Kibana, have significantly expanded Hydrolix's reach and value proposition.
This investment will enable the company to extend its reach to additional cloud platforms, focusing on security, observability, adtech and RUM platforms. Increasing the sources of data Hydrolix can absorb while guaranteeing that clients can keep their current interfaces and procedures is another aspect of the expansion. One of the main reasons for Hydrolix's explosive growth is its capacity to significantly lower the cost of keeping and evaluating priceless log data.
Every investor in the round has connections and experience in several vertical markets and geographical areas. QED has strong ties to the financial services sector because it was founded by Capital One co-founder Nigel Morris, and Pruven provides real estate, insurance, and healthcare.
Hydrolix will increase its already substantial market penetration in Asia and Europe, with the backing of Sozo Ventures and Frontline Ventures, respectively. Through its global Innovation Council, Blumberg Capital provides increased access to technology leaders across sectors.
