The new investment brings the total raised by Anitian $71 million and provides fresh capital to fuel ambitious expansion plans.

In addition to Sageview Capital, existing investor Forgepoint Capital also joined the Series B round.

The company plans to use the new funds to fuel its expansion and to advance cloud security and compliance automation.

“This round of funding propels our ability to further accelerate Anitian’s growth and leadership position in the market by delivering automated, pre-engineered platforms that empower enterprises to get their applications to the cloud and market faster,” Anitian CEO Rakesh Narasimhan said.
