Docker Inc., the lead commercial sponsor behind the open-source Docker container virtualization technology, today announced that it has closed a $40 million Series C round of funding. The new round of funding comes on the heels of the Docker 1.0 release and the emergence of a commercial ecosystem around the container virtualization technology.
The Series C round of funding is the second funding event for Docker in 2014. In January, Docker announced a $15 million funding round.
