Blue Medora, a Grand Rapids, Mich.-based provider of virtualization and cloud monitoring and management plugins that extend the functionality of popular enterprise management systems like Oracle Enterprise Manager and IBM Tivoli, received an additional $1.25m in capital.
Backers included West Michigan-based angel investment groups Start Garden ($500k) and the Grand Angels ($750k).
The company intends to use the new funding to continue to expand and to commercialize its plugins.
