Anagran Closes $8.6M in Funding

Customer Info Still TBD

Anagran, the Larry Roberts outfit that has been pushing the concept of “flow routing,” has closed on $8.6 million in financing during its D round.

The company’s existing venture capital investors, Advanced Technology Ventures, ArrowPath Venture Partners, and Draper Fisher Jurvetson, participated in this round, which will help expand Anagran’s global sales presence and further bolster its engineering resources.

Roberts, considered to be among the Internet’s founding fathers, first tried to get a flow routing solution off the ground through a now-defunct company called Caspian. Anagran is his second shot at creating an affordable router that can deliver the QoS required by real-time traffic like video and voice.

At NXTcomm in June, Roberts told Anagran it had yet to publicly announce any customers. The Anagran Web site this week did not include any press releases announcing customers either.
