Part of the proceeds from the raise will be used to further enhance xStream, Virtustream's secure high-performance cloud platform.

The additional solution enhancements planned for xStream will enable cloud federation and cloud exchange capabilities combining private clouds, virtual private clouds and public clouds.
The additional capital will also support company expansion across new geographies and sectors in order to meet rapidly escalating cloud demand, particularly from the enterprise, service provider and government market sectors. Virtustream has offices in New York, Washington, London, and San Francisco and operates four data centers worldwide. Virtustream is expanding geographic reach further with strategic partnerships in China and Southeast Asia, including Malaysia, Indonesia and Thailand.
