Startup HighTouch, which is developing software to enable companies to get their data out of data warehouses and into an application — a reverse to the normal ETL process — has raised $40 million in a B-round of funding. HighTouch software copies data from the data warehouse tables into a SaaS application’s tables, such as Salesforce. Data analysis is done inside the SaaS app and not the data warehouse. HighTouch integrates with BigQuery, Snowflake, and Databricks, and enterprise applications such as Anaplan, HubSpot, Mixpanel, Salesforce, Stripe, and Jira.

JetStream Software has announced general availability of JetStream disaster recovery for Azure VMware Solution (AVS), offered through the Microsoft Azure Marketplace and sold by Microsoft sales teams. Microsoft and Jetstream say it’s the first cloud-native, disaster recovery as a service (DRaaS) for VMware-based clouds and on-premises VMware environments. An integration with NetApp enables Azure NetApp Files (ANF) to support storage expansion of larger data sets independent of compute, enabling a much faster recovery time and near-zero RTO — at a lower cost. The offering combines Azure Blob Storage, JetStream DR (VMware-certified), Azure VMware Solution, and ANF storage expansion. Microsoft and JetStream say it will radically transform the economics of disaster recovery for enterprises.
