Cisco has announced the general availability of the Splunk Observability Cloud on Amazon Web Services (AWS) in Singapore, a move designed to provide organisations with real-time, unified visibility across IT environments. This launch comes as Singapore prepares to implement its Digital Infrastructure Act, addressing the increasing operational demands faced by businesses in the Asia Pacific region.
The Splunk Observability Cloud offers enterprises the ability to reduce operational strain by transforming complex data into actionable insights through unified metrics, traces, and logs. This service aims to safeguard resilience by enabling faster issue resolution and maintaining high availability and compliance of critical systems. Additionally, it supports innovation by leveraging AWS’s local infrastructure to manage costs and optimise data use.
Robert Pizzari, Group Vice President of Asia at Splunk, highlighted the importance of the service, stating, “In fast-moving markets like Asia, the ability to proactively monitor systems and resolve issues quickly is key to sustaining both innovation and customer trust.”
The launch is timely, aligning with Singapore’s Smart Nation initiatives and the upcoming Digital Infrastructure Act, which emphasises the need for robust digital infrastructure. By hosting the service in the AWS Singapore Region, organisations can meet regulatory priorities and ensure data retention within the country, crucial for industries such as banking, transportation, and telecommunications.
As Singaporean teams continue to lead in digital innovation, the Splunk Observability Cloud is set to play a pivotal role in managing operational pressures, reducing burnout, and driving strategic business initiatives.
