Typesafe Raises $14M From Shasta, Greylock, And Juniper To Commercialize Scala

Typesafe, a company that makes it easy to build and deploy software built on the Scala software language, has raised $14 million in Series funding led by Shasta Ventures with Juniper Networks (the Junos Innovation Fund), Greylock Partners and Fran?ois Stieger (former executive at Verisign, Broadvision, and Oracle) participating. Essentially, Typesafe does for Scala what Cloudera does for Hadoop. The company was actually founded by the creators of the Scale and Akka programming languages. The Typesafe Stack, which is compatible with Java, combines the Akka middleware framework, the Play web framework, and the Scala programming language.
