Splunk
Closes Acquisition of Cloud Monitoring Leader SignalFx
Splunk
and SignalFx Combine Forces to Usher In New Era of APM; Joint Offering Helps Customers Monitor and Observe Data at Any Stage of
their Cloud Journey
SAN FRANCISCO -
October 2, 2019 -
Splunk Inc. (NASDAQ: SPLK), provider of the Data-to-Everything Platform, today announced that it has
completed the acquisition of SignalFx, a SaaS leader in real-time monitoring and metrics for cloud infrastructure, microservices
and applications. Splunk is already a leader in ITOM and an AIOps pioneer and, with the addition of SignalFx, is now a leader
in observability and APM for organizations at every stage of their cloud journey, from cloud-native apps to homegrown on-premises
applications. For more information, visit the SignalFx website for a free trial of SignalFx.
The aggregate purchase
price for the transaction was approximately $1.05 billion, excluding adjustments, paid approximately 60% in cash and 40% in Splunk
common stock.
"We live in a cloud-first
world, where developers must have the ability to monitor and observe cloud-native infrastructure and applications in real-time,
whether via logs, metrics or tracing. The power of Splunk and SignalFx allows our customers to monitor any relevant data at massive
scale", said Doug Merritt, President and CEO, Splunk. "I'm thrilled to welcome SignalFx to the Splunk team, and
can't wait to show our customers how our data platform can help them turn data into doing".
"Atlassian uses
SignalFx's technology for cloud monitoring", said Stephen Deasy, Atlassian's Head of Engineering. "SignalFx
helps us improve customer experience and keeps our business humming by monitoring our cloud infrastructure, microservices and applications".
With Splunk, the combined
technologies will give customers one platform that can monitor the entire enterprise application lifecycle. The predictability
and versatility of Splunk's Data-to-Everything pricing programs will also provide SignalFx's customers with exceptional value
and best-in-class, next generation solutions when compared to legacy APM solutions.
SignalFx's cloud-delivered
solutions have a highly differentiated set of features including real-time streaming analytics, such as the NoSample™ architecture
for distributed tracing. The combination of Splunk and SignalFx will give IT departments a data platform that allows them to monitor
and observe data in real-time, no matter the infrastructure or scale - in order to cut costs, boost revenue and improve the customer
experience.
