Astronomer’s $93M raise underscores a new reality: Orchestration is king in AI infrastructure


Astronomer secures $93 million in Series D funding to solve the AI implementation gap through data orchestration, helping enterprises streamline complex workflows and operationalize AI initiatives at scale.

In an exclusive interview with VentureBeat, Astronomer CEO Andy Byron explained that the company will use the funding to expedite research and development efforts and expand its global footprint, particularly in Europe, Australia, and New Zealand. Ford initially built its MLOps platform using Kubeflow for orchestration but encountered significant challenges, including a steep learning curve and tight integration with Google Cloud, which limited flexibility. Salem believes Astronomer is positioned to redefine enterprise data operations, moving beyond orchestration to what the company calls “unified DataOps” — a comprehensive approach integrating observability, quality management, and governance into a single platform.
