Docker Acquires Tutum

dockerDocker, Inc., a San Francisco, CA-based open platform for distributed applications, acquired Tutum, a New York City-based cloud service for automating development team workflows.

The amount of the deal was not disclosed.

The acquisition will allow Docker to deploy and manage “Dockerized” applications into production on any infrastructure. By integrating Tutum with Docker Hub, the company provides a complete commercial solution for IT teams to collaboratively build, ship and run production-ready distributed applications.
The service, operational since October 2013, has been used by thousands of organizations both to create their first Dockerized distributed applications and to create sustainable environments for the deployment and management of those applications in production.
The Tutum platform leverages a workflow, backed by an integrated set of operational tooling, which enables development teams to move applications from build to production in minutes.

Led by Ben Golub, CEO, Docker is the company behind the Docker open source platform, and the chief sponsor of the Docker ecosystem, an open platform for developers and system administrators to build, ship and run distributed applications.
Docker is used by millions of developers across thousands of the world’s most innovative organizations, including eBay, Baidu, the BBC, Goldman Sachs, Groupon, ING, Yelp, and Spotify. Its adoption has triggered the growth of an active ecosystem, resulting in more than 180,000 “Dockerized” applications, over 40 Docker-related startups and integration partnerships with AWS, Cloud Foundry, Google, IBM, Microsoft, OpenStack, Rackspace, Red Hat and VMware.
The company is venture backed by AME Cloud Ventures, Benchmark, Coatue, Goldman Sachs, Greylock Partners, Insight Venture Partners, Northern Trust, Sequoia Capital, SV Angel, Trinity Ventures and Y Combinator.
