Palo Alto, Calif.-based self-serve low code data transformation platform provider Prophecy has closed a $35 million Series B funding round. The investment was led by Insight Partners and SignalFire, with J.P. Morgan participating as a major investor. New investors such as Singtel Innov8, Databricks Ventures, and DallasVC also joined the round. Prophecy has raised $67 million to date.

The funding round also led to two new board appointments: Herb Cunitz, principal Accel2GM and former president of Hortonworks, and Elena Zislin, managing director and partner J.P.
