RBVC’s most recent investment is iguazio, a data platform and analytics vendor who has rebuilt the data stack from the processor up to the application layer. iguazio announced its B round of investment this week, with participation from RBVC as well as Pitango, Verizon Ventures, CME Ventures, and its existing investors.
Big data analytics — where vast troves of information are structured and used to help businesses gain more insights into their operations and customers, to develop new products, and to run more efficiently — are a cornerstone of how many tech-centric enterprises run their businesses today.
Robert Bosch Venture Capital GmbH (RBVC), the corporate venture capital company of the Bosch Group, has completed an investment in iguazio. The Herzliya, Israel, based company accelerates the digital transformation of enterprises and simplifies real-time analytics at the edge, on-premises and in hybrid environments, complementing the offering of leading cloud providers.
Data analytics startup Iguazio has raised $33m in a B-round. That takes total funding for the three-year-old Israeli firm to $48m. Strategic investors included Verizon Ventures, Robert Bosch Venture Capital, CME Ventures and Dell Technologies Capital, plus existing investors Pitango Ventures, Magma Venture Partners and Jerusalem Venture Partners.

Case in point: big data ecosystems, where numerous overlapping implementations rarely share components or use common APIs and layers. They also tend to lack standard wire protocols and each processing framework (think Spark, Presto and Flink) has its own data source API.
