Snowflake Closes Acquisition of Observe to Bring AI-Powered Observability to Customers

Today, we’re excited to welcome the Observe team to Snowflake as we officially closed our acquisition.
Last month, we announced our intent to acquire Observe to deliver AI-powered observability to our customers. This acquisition expands our capabilities in the growing IT operations management software market.
This acquisition brings Observe’s AI-powered observability into Snowflake, allowing customers to run their most critical workloads with greater reliability and performance. In fact, Observe’s AI agents enable teams to troubleshoot issues up to 10 times faster while reducing costs.
Observe was built on Snowflake from the start, bringing value to our mutual customers. Together, we’ll shift teams from reactive monitoring to proactive, predictive operations across their AI and data applications.
Observe’s developer-friendly approach will also complement our existing platform by providing teams with real-time enterprise context, faster root cause analysis and AI-assisted troubleshooting — critical components for operating dynamic, autonomous systems at scale.
We’re excited to help our customers with their observability needs, while bringing our traditional focus on ease of use, high performance and governance capabilities. With the close of the acquisition, Observe CEO and Founder, Jeremy Burton, has resigned from Snowflake's Board of Directors.
