Aliso Viejo-based Datallegro Inc. has landed $22.5 million in a third round of funding, bringing total investments to more than $42 million.
The round comes as the seller of data storage gear announced some high-profile customers, including Sears Holdings Corp.
The round was led by Palo Alto-based JAFCO Ventures, a new investor. The other new investor was Focus Ventures of Palo Alto, along with past investors.
Datallegro sells a data storage appliance with its proprietary software on it. The company tunes and configures the software for optimal performance with the hardware.
The company hopes to offer its software along with data storage computers made by other companies. Datallegro’s software is made to be installed in a company’s server room.
Datallegro’s software is designed to work with database applications made by Oracle Corp. and others.
