Kestra has raised $25
million in a Series A funding round led by RTP Global, with continued
participation from Alven, ISAI, and Axeleo. The round brings the company’s
total funding to $36 million.
Kestra develops an
open-source orchestration platform designed to unify data pipelines, AI
workflows, infrastructure automation, and business processes within a single
control plane. As enterprise systems become increasingly distributed across
cloud, on-premise environments, and AI-driven applications, organisations often
rely on fragmented tools that are not built for current levels of complexity.
The company addresses this
challenge with a unified orchestration layer that enables teams to manage
workflows across systems in a consistent and scalable way. Its platform is
designed to support hybrid and secure environments, with an extensible architecture
supported by a broad plugin ecosystem.
Most enterprise software
companies try to sell top-down and hope developers adopt. We took a different
approach, focusing on building a product that engineers choose because it works
in production. That foundation continues to guide how we develop the platform,
said Emmanuel Darras, CEO
and co-founder of Kestra.
The newly raised capital
will support the development of Kestra 2.0, including enhancements to its
distributed execution capabilities and real-time observability features.
The
company also plans to expand its cloud offering, strengthen its presence in North
America and Europe, and continue investing in its open-source ecosystem.
