Irvine-based Quest Software Inc. said Monday it closed its acquisition of privately held Imceda Software Inc.
Quest announced its plan to buy Burlington, Mass.-based Imceda in April for about $60 million.
The deal was mainly for cash. Quest used its stock to pay for about 20% of the deal, which includes the assumption of Imceda options.
Imceda makes tools to develop software for databases. Quest’s software works alongside databases to make them easier to use.
The deal stands to expand Quest’s products that help manage SQL server databases. While Quest’s main focus is to develop software for systems based on Oracle Corp. databases, it has been developing products for other database software, such as the SQL standard.
