Velocity accelerates growth with $22 million in funding to speed up feature-to-market delivery with production-like environments-as-a-service
Summary
"More than 20% of a developers time is being wasted on creating and maintaining non-production environments, instead of working on delivering new features to customers," says Velocity CEO and co-founder Tal Kain. Our goal at Velocity is to deliver a production-like environment in a click so that developers only have to put in minimal effort and upkeep on their side to operate in their regular workflow." Add to that, the pain of needing to compete to get access to a specific resource or wasting time waiting to deploy to a shared, staging environment. "We met multiple companies that started investing months of their DevOps time building their own home-grown solutions, just to be able to work and debug easily," says Kain. Instead of being a new tool that must be learned, Velocity works with developers current toolbox and existing workspace, integrating with their IDE of choice to remove any friction to their daily workflow.
