Splunk Acquires SignalFx

On October 2, 2019, SignalFx acquisition adds real-time observability for cloud-native technologies such as microservices, serverless functions, and container orchestrated environments like Docker and Kubernetes. The combination of Splunk and SignalFx gives IT and developers a data platform that allows them to monitor and observe data in real-time, no matter the data source or type of application. This enables organizations to work across their entire data landscape, not just silos in the data center or cloud-native environments.
