Komodor’s automated approach to incident resolution accelerates response times, reduces MTTR, and empowers dev teams to resolve issues efficiently and independently. The platform ingests millions of Kubernetes events each day and then bakes the key learnings directly into the platform.

“We’re scaling incredibly fast, directly alongside the massive adoption of Kubernetes,” said Ben Ofiri, CEO and Co-Founder of Komodor. “Since the Series A, we’ve tripled the size of our team, and we plan to double again before the end of the year. We have talented engineers researching all of the ways things go sideways in Kubernetes, and we package this knowledge into automated playbooks for the benefit of our customers.”
Kubernetes is the most popular graduated project within the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF). According to the most recent State of Cloud Native Development Report, Kubernetes has demonstrated impressive growth over the past 12 months with 5.6 million developers using Kubernetes today. This represents a 67% increase from just a year ago. However, despite its growing popularity, complexity remains a top challenge in using and deploying containers.
“Komodor is loved by teams adopting Kubernetes because it makes every engineer a confident technical leader and operator,” said John Curtius, Partner at Tiger Global. “We are thrilled to be backing Ben and the Komodor team and believe Komodor is a special company.”
