Manchester-based Matillion, an integration platform for cloud data warehouses, announced that it has raised $150M (approx €127.43M) in its Series E round of funding.
The company has now raised a total of $310M (approx €263.37M) in funding and has reached unicorn status with a valuation of $1.5B (approx €1.27B).
A cloud data warehouse uses the space and compute power allocated by a cloud provider to integrate and store data from different data sources for analytical querying and reporting.
Investors
The Series E round was led by global growth equity firm General Atlantic. The round also saw participation from Battery Ventures, Sapphire Ventures, Scale Venture Partners, and Lightspeed Venture Partners.
Speaking on the development, Chris Caulkin, MD and head of technology for EMEA at General Atlantic, says, “We believe that Matillion’s low-code ETL platform simplifies the process of constructing data pipelines and preparing data for analysis, enabling citizen data scientists and data engineers alike to play a valuable role in extracting data-based insights. We look forward to supporting the team through its next phase of growth and expansion.”
Data transformation for cloud data warehouses
