MapR executives come from Google, Lightspeed Venture Partners, Informatica, EMC Corporation and Veoh. MapR had an additional round of funding led by Redpoint Ventures in August, 2011.[4] A round in 2013 was led by Mayfield Fund that also included Greenspring Associates.[5] In June 2014, MapR closed a $110 million financing round that was led by Google Capital. Qualcomm Ventures also participated, along with existing investors Lightspeed Venture Partners, Mayfield Fund, New Enterprise Associates and Redpoint Ventures.[6][7]

In May 2019, the company announced that it would shut down if it was unable to find additional funding.[8]
