Singapore - October 1, 2025 - Today Cisco, the worldwide leader in networking and security, launched the general availability of Splunk® Observability Cloud in Singapore via the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Asia Pacific (Singapore) Region, with early access available to customers since August 1, 2025. The launch comes as organisations in Singapore face increasing operational demands to support innovation, reliability, and resilient digital infrastructure.

With Splunk Observability Cloud, engineering and IT Operations teams gain unified visibility across all their environments, so they can answer questions about the performance and health of their applications, services and infrastructure with metrics, traces and logs - all data collected through its OpenTelemetry-native platform. By turning complex data into actionable insights, Cisco empowers organisations to operate more efficiently, safeguard critical systems, and innovate with confidence.

Observability Launch Meets Rising National Standards for Resilience and Security

Building a robust and reliable digital infrastructure remains a key focus of Singapore's updated Smart Nation policy. With the upcoming Digital Infrastructure Act, observability is expected to play an increasingly central role in helping organisations meet national standards for resilience and security. By hosting Splunk Observability Cloud on the AWS Singapore Region, enterprises can address regulatory priorities and in-country data retention requirements. Organizations in industries with critical infrastructure and services-such as banking, transportation and telecommunications-can ensure their systems will remain highly available and performant.

"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," said Robert Pizzari, Group Vice President of Asia at Splunk. "By using Splunk Observability Cloud, teams can ensure critical services remain resilient, performant, and compliant with emerging national standards, while shifting focus from firefighting incidents and losing critical business context to prioritising what matters to the business and drive strategic initiatives."

Real-Time Observability and Cloud Performance with Splunk on the AWS Singapore Region

Singaporean organisations are leading the region in digital innovation, but the pace comes with operational pressures. According to Splunk's report, Singapore teams launched the highest number of new digital products and services in Asia Pacific last year. At the same time, 82% of teams reported key members leaving due to burnout from operational strain, alert fatigue and other pressures.

Splunk Observability Cloud on the AWS Singapore Region will empower teams to manage these challenges by providing real-time, unsampled insights across infrastructure, applications, and users. Building on over 10 years of Splunk's strategic collaboration with AWS, enterprises can now access far more data than ever before, query it on demand without full ingestion, and optimise cloud usage for efficiency and cost savings.

"As data volumes surge, organisations in Singapore need tools to innovate securely and at scale," said Christine Low, Head of Observability, APJC, Splunk. "With Splunk Observability Cloud now available on the AWS Singapore Region, enterprises can leverage local infrastructure and innovate at speed. This gives teams the ability to manage their applications in real time, keep data in-country, and use simplified pricing to tackle growing data volume efficiently."

AWS Regions consist of Availability Zones that place infrastructure in separate and distinct geographic locations. Availability Zones are located far enough from each other to support customers' business continuity, but near enough to provide low latency for high availability applications that use multiple Availability Zones. Each Availability Zone has independent power, cooling, and physical security and is connected through redundant, ultra-low-latency networks.

"In today's AI-driven economy, businesses handle massive streams of data and complex digital operations simultaneously. Observability is like a weather radar, helping organisations anticipate storms, adjust course, and keep operations steady. Splunk Observability Cloud on AWS Singapore gives teams the flexibility to scale with confidence, reduce operational strain, and deliver the resilient digital services that fuel growth," added Pizzari.

The full observability portfolio from Cisco includes Splunk Observability Cloud, Splunk IT Service Intelligence, and Splunk AppDynamics.
