StrikeIron, a venture-capital backed data software firm that launched in 2003, has been acquired by Informatica. But details about the deal at this point are scarce.

The firms are promising more information later.

Contacted by phone early today, StirkeIron declined comment.

On its web page, StrikeIron says that it is now part of publicly traded Informatica (Nasdaq: INFA).

However, Informatica has published nothing on its website nor has filed anything with the SEC, according to a check of the SEC website this morning.

StrikeIron and Informatica are promising more information to people who register for a webinar.

However, even registering for that discloses no further information. 

StrikeIron has experienced strong growth over the past four years, reporting that its revenues have grown 400 percent. The company ranked No, 1,652 on the Inc. 5000 list in 2013.

The company was launched by Bob Brauer, Richard Holcomb and Robert Dale in 2003. Investors include Aurora Funds in Durham. 

Brauer, who is still listed as chief technology officer, was a founder of Cary-based DataFlux.

Holcomb helped launched two other Triangle software firms, HAHT and Q+E.
