When we started building Virtana, our mission was clear: help enterprises make smarter decisions by giving them deep, actionable visibility into every layer of their infrastructure. As this infrastructure drives the critical services that we rely on every day, from Banking to Healthcare, Travel, Education and Telecommunications, our mission has become even more critical today.
I’m excited to share that Virtana has acquired Zenoss—an observability pioneer with a rich history of helping organizations monitor and manage complex IT environments. This is more than a strategic move. It’s a partnership grounded in shared vision, complementary strengths, and a common goal: to redefine how organizations observe, operate, and optimize their infrastructure.
Together, we’re better positioned than ever to deliver what the market truly needs: the deepest, broadest, and most unified observability platform for hybrid, multi-cloud, and containerized environments. It’s not just visibility—it’s intelligence, automation, and control, all in one place.
Why It Matters Now
Over the past few years, we’ve seen a dramatic shift in how enterprises architect and operate their IT environments. The rise of multi-cloud strategies, containerized workloads, and the explosion of distributed applications have created a level of complexity traditional monitoring tools simply weren’t built for.
At the same time, infrastructure and operations leaders are under pressure to reduce costs, mitigate risk, and deliver flawless digital experiences—often with leaner teams and growing expectations. That’s why a unified, AI powered, intelligent approach to observability is no longer optional. It’s foundational. And that’s exactly what Virtana and Zenoss are now delivering—together.
The Future of Observability Demands More
Enterprises are managing sprawling infrastructures and rapidly scaling services while juggling performance, cost, and compliance—all at once. Yet most observability solutions remain fragmented or narrowly focused, leaving teams without the full context they need to act quickly and confidently.
This acquisition changes that. By bringing together Virtana’s strength in infrastructure intelligence and capacity optimization with Zenoss’ proven AIOps capabilities and service-aware monitoring, we are creating a platform that delivers real-time correlation, actionable insights, and automated resolution across the full stack.
It’s visibility without silos. Intelligence without overload. And operations without guesswork.
The Power of Depth, Breadth, and Unification
What does it mean to deliver the deepest, broadest, and most unified observability platform in the industry?
It means going beyond surface-level metrics to deliver real insight into the health, performance, and behavior of every layer of infrastructure—from applications and services to compute, storage, and network components.
It means supporting a wide range of environments—on-premises, public cloud, private cloud, containers, and everything in between—without compromising context, precision, or control.
And it means bringing all of this together into a single, AI powered platform that eliminates silos, correlates data in real time, and empowers teams to act with clarity and speed.
This combination is what today’s complex environments demand. Observability can no longer live in disconnected tools or disjointed dashboards. The next generation of enterprise operations requires a unified system of intelligence—one that spans technology domains and translates telemetry into outcomes.
That’s what Virtana and Zenoss are now delivering.
A Shared Vision for Innovation and Impact
As we got to know the Zenoss team, one thing became clear: we share more than technical synergy—we share a philosophy. Both companies have built cultures focused on innovation, accountability, and above all, customer success.
We believe observability should empower, not overwhelm. It should simplify complexity, not add to it. And it should deliver real answers—not just more alerts. That alignment in vision and values is a major reason why this combination makes sense—and why it will succeed.
What This Means for Our Customers
If you’re a Zenoss customer, you can expect continuity, support, and acceleration. We’re investing in the roadmap, not rewriting it. You’ll see faster innovation, deeper integrations, and expanded capabilities across cloud, on-prem, and hybrid environments.
If you’re a Virtana customer, you’ll gain from Zenoss’ strengths in real-time service awareness and intelligent automation—making your infrastructure even more responsive, resilient, and efficient.
For every customer, this combination means a platform that scales with your business, adapts to your environment, and delivers insight with impact.
What Comes Next
In the months ahead, you’ll start to see this vision take shape—from product integration and enhanced features to expanded go-to-market reach. Our combined teams are already working together to accelerate the roadmap and deliver more value, faster. We’re committed to helping our customers stay ahead of complexity and turn observability into a source of strategic advantage.
Looking Ahead
This is more than an acquisition—it’s a statement of intent. We’re building the most complete observability platform in the market, and we’re doing it with a partner that shares our ambition and customer-first mindset.
We’re proud to welcome Zenoss to Virtana. This is just the beginning of what’s ahead. Stay tuned for more exciting developments.
