Cloudflare enters new market; acquisition will
enhance observability tools within Cloudflare's developer platform
to keep pace with the evolving needs of modern web applications
Cloudflare, Inc. (NYSE: NET), the leading connectivity cloud
company, today announced an entrance into the observability market
with the acquisition of Baselime, the cloud-native observability
platform. By integrating Baselime’s technology with Cloudflare’s
developer platform, Cloudflare will be uniquely positioned to bring
deep knowledge of serverless platforms and developer experience
together to solve the challenges of observability for serverless
apps. Today, entire applications are built on serverless
architectures, from compute to databases, storage, queues, and
more. Still, observability is often regarded as one of the
weaknesses of serverless architectures — trading off visibility
into the application’s behavior for scalable infrastructure that
doesn’t need to be managed. Building and debugging production
applications requires the ability to understand trends and
patterns, identify performance bottlenecks, and isolate errors to
ensure ongoing reliability, scalability, and security. Having
access to this level of visibility, preferably all within one
platform, is a critical factor developers consider when choosing a
platform on which to build.
“Two million developers building on Cloudflare trust us to help
scale their apps globally, but can still struggle to understand the
behavior of their cloud applications,” said Matthew Prince,
co-founder and CEO, Cloudflare. “We believe that to be the leading
developer platform, having the best observability tools built in is
going to be table-stakes. Baselime has raised the standard for
serverless observability and we can further unlock those insights
for every developer building on our platform.”
With this acquisition, Cloudflare enters into the observability
market to further enable developers to deploy services in
production — allowing teams to identify when a release has gone
wrong and needs to be rolled back, investigate bugs and
regressions, optimize performance, and more. Developers will also
benefit from the ability to optimize the cost of their serverless
applications, by understanding the rate of requests made and
analyzing sources of latency.
With this acquisition, Baselime will be integrated into
Cloudflare’s developer platform, helping developers push the
boundaries of modern observability to:
- Analyze their observability data across thousands of possible
fields and values, to surface all errors, requests, or performance
issues for specific users or across their entire applications.
- Enable and adopt OpenTelemetry-based tools and standards to
facilitate integration with a diverse set of application frameworks
and cloud providers. These tools and standards enable developers to
easily and consistently instrument their applications for rich
observability data, making it easier to quickly troubleshoot
issues, whether they impact a single user, a subset of users or the
entire application.
- Extract insights from their observability data thanks to a
suite of developer experience improvements, including real-time
error tracking based on logs and traces, actionable alerts, trace
diagrams and timelines, an approachable query engine, and an AI
debugging assistant.
“Cloudflare is building the next frontier of cloud computing
with their connectivity cloud. Our core mission has always been to
simplify and innovate observability for the future of the cloud,
and Cloudflare's ecosystem offers the ideal ground to further this
cause,” said Boris Tane, founder and CEO, Baselime. “With
Cloudflare, we're positioned to deeply integrate into a platform
that two million developers trust, enabling them to build, ship,
and troubleshoot applications fast. I am incredibly excited about
the potential of what we can build together and the impact it will
have on developers around the world.”
