According to boston.com, Michael Stonebraker’s new company Data Tamer has raised seed funding from Google Ventures and NEA for an ETL-in-the-cloud service:

This year, there’s yet another Stonebraker startup: Data Tamer, which has raised seed funding from Google Ventures and NEA. The business side of the fledgling company is being run by Andy Palmer, a frequent Stonebraker co-conspirator. And the technological underpinnings of Data Tamer come from Stonebraker’s lab at MIT, as well as work done at Brandeis by Mitch Cherniack and at Brown by Stan Zdonik.

I don’t think I’d be wrong saying that Michael Stonebraker is the most prolific person in the data space (INGRES, Illustra with Posgres, Cohera Co with Mariposa, StreamBase with Aurora, Vertica with the C-Store based homonymous product, VoltDB with the H-Store homonymous product, SciDB, Data Tamer).
