**DataFlow Raises $45M Series B to Expand Real-Time Data Platform Globally**

*Funding led by Accel brings total investment to $62M as demand for real-time data infrastructure accelerates*

**SAN FRANCISCO — February 8, 2026** — DataFlow, the real-time data pipeline platform for engineering teams, today announced $45 million in Series B funding led by Accel, with continued participation from Sequoia and Y Combinator. The round brings the company's total funding to $62 million.

DataFlow will use the investment to grow its team from 50 to 120 employees and launch European data center operations in Q3 2026. The company has seen 4x revenue growth year-over-year, with over 200 engineering teams now using its platform to build and monitor real-time data pipelines.

"Engineering teams are drowning in batch processing tools that weren't built for the real-time demands of modern applications," said Maya Rodriguez, CEO and co-founder of DataFlow. "This funding lets us meet that demand at global scale and give every team access to infrastructure that used to require a dedicated data platform team to build."

The platform enables engineers to build, test, and monitor data pipelines through a visual interface and code-first SDK, reducing setup time from weeks to hours. Key customers include mid-market and enterprise companies across fintech, healthcare, and e-commerce.

"DataFlow has built exactly what modern data teams need — reliable real-time pipelines without the operational burden," said Sarah Kim, Partner at Accel. "Their developer adoption metrics are among the strongest we've seen in the infrastructure space."
