PerfectScale raises $7.1 million for its Kubernetes optimization platform

PerfectScale, a developer of a Kubernetes (K8s) Optimization and Automation platform, has announced that it has secured $7.1 million in Seed funding led by Blumberg Capital. The latest round also included participation from UpWest, Prelude Ventures, K2 Access Fund, Inner Loop Capital, Triangle Tweener Fund, and Firestreak Ventures. It means that the company’s total funding has reached almost $10 million since its founding in March 2022. The majority of cloud workloads now run on Kubernetes and its market size is expected to reach almost $8 billion by 2027 – however, its fast adoption rate is affecting companies’ ability to support the complexity and management of resources that come with large-scale, cloud-native infrastructure. A primary way to overcome this is by ‘perfecting’ Day 2 Kubernetes operations, which focuses on optimizing costs and performance as a main focus.
