groundcover raised $35 Million in Series B funding led by Zeev Ventures with follow-up participation from Angular Ventures, Heavybit, and Jibe Ventures.
This brings the company's total funding to $60 Million USD, which will be used to aggressively expand in the USA.
"Our platform offers much better coverage and value than the legacy application monitoring solutions that have been around for over a decade," said Shahar Azulay, CEO and Co-Founder of groundcover. "We are the only solution built with eBPF at the forefront from day one, and we are now pioneering the 'bring your own cloud' approach to observability that enables organizations to keep their data on premise while maintaining all of the benefits of the SaaS experience."
groundcover is a "Bring Your Own Cloud" (BYOC) observability solution, redefining the architecture of a modern observability platform by enabling customers to host their observability data on-prem, while still being fully managed by groundcover. This approach is the X-factor behind groundcover's velocity, maximizing the security and privacy needs of customers, while unlocking coverage tradeoffs with unlimited data, and providing a full observability suite with a simple, predictable pricing model. groundcover also utilizes eBPF to collect observability data straight from the Linux kernel, providing engineers with super-granular visibility into their entire environment including traces, application-level metrics, infrastructure performance and application logs.
"groundcover is fundamentally reshaping the observability landscape. With its eBPF-driven platform and 'Bring Your Own Cloud' approach, it's setting a new standard for depth of observability, cost efficiency, and security," said Oren Zev, Founder of Zeev Ventures. "As the industry continues to shift to richer experiences, such as AI, around observability data, groundcover with its unique and modern architecture is positioned to outpace legacy solutions and dominate the space."
