The new round of funding, led by Insight Venture Partners and including the participation of Coatue, Goldman Sachs, Northern Trust, Benchmark, Greylock Partners, Sequoia Capital, Trinity Ventures and Jerry Yang’s AME Cloud Ventures, builds on Docker’s $40 million Series C round of funding that was announced in September 2014 and a $15 million Series B round announced in January 2014.
