RightScale, Inc. said Monday it has secured $13 million in second round funding from venture capitalists Index Ventures and current investor Benchmark Capital.
The Santa Barbara company also announced that Index Ventures partner Danny Rimer joined the company’s board.
The money will go toward advancing the development of RightScale’s cloud-computing management product and allow it to expand into new markets.
The company uses “server templates” to let customers manage and scale multi-cloud applications.

I would like to get an alert as to upcoming IPO for Rightscale
Looking at investing in the major players in cloud computing- Do 3tera and Rax qualiify?
Rackspace and 3Tera are both cloud computing plays. Rackspace has obviously had a great run since the lows early last year. I don’t know enough about the company’s business to know where it goes from here. If I were you I would look closely at its earnings reports – which you have probably done. 3Tera is a private company. It doesn’t trade on a public market.
who are the three “major players” in cloud computing that the Motley Fool newsletter wants to charge $$$$$
for the info
Rax is doing well and revenues projected to triple by 2010 end
No idea who the Motley Fool singles out. I don’t read it often. I wonder if one might be IBM. IBM is big into cloud – for obvious reasons.
