SANTA CLARA, Calif., July 16, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- JFrog, a software build and distribution company, announced today that it has closed a $7 million Series B round of funding. Series B investors include VMware and a follow-on investment from Gemini Ventures, who led JFrog's Series A round of funding. Proceeds from the new funds will be used to expand the company's R&D staff, fuel open-source activities, and drive sales and marketing efforts worldwide.
"We are witnessing a revolution and industrialization of modern software delivery," said Shlomi Ben Haim, JFrog CEO. "With Artifactory and Bintray's seamless integration with Continuous-Integration ecosystem, JFrog has become the uncompromising standard among Fortune 500 companies and open-source projects.

"We are excited to see solutions like JFrog's Artifactory complement VMware vCloud® Automation Center™ to help customers simplify and accelerate the application development and release process in hybrid cloud environments."
