SwiftStack, the provider of a software-defined storage solution specifically for object storage, has raised $6.1 million in Series A funding. The San Francisco-based company’s platform decouples management from underlying storage infrastructure, enabling customers to build storage on hardware. SwiftStack will reportedly use the funding to expand its sales team, operations and product development. The round of financing was led by Mayfield Fund and included participation from Storm Ventures and UMC Capital.
