BlueCat Networks, a leading provider of mission-critical network infrastructure management, automation, and security solutions, today announced that it has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire LiveAction, Inc., a global provider of network observability and intelligence solutions, from software investor Insight Partners. Insight Partners remains a minority investor and continues to support the combined company’s growth. Moelis & Company acted as financial advisors to LiveAction.
LiveAction provides a leading network observability and intelligence solution that is purpose-built for complex enterprises, leveraging advanced data collection at scale to provide full visibility through a single pane of glass across the entire network. The LiveAction solution is differentiated by its integrated flow and deep packet analysis, dynamic visualizations, precise troubleshooting, root cause analysis, rapid security forensics, and a superior set of integrations that enable both network and security teams to leverage network data across the observability stack. Ultimately, LiveAction enables large organizations to get ahead of network performance and security issues before they impact applications, customers and business services.
BlueCat’s industry-leading DNS, DHCP and IPAM (“DDI”) solutions are the source of truth for what is on the network while automating and securing the provisioning, orchestration and configuration of foundational network services. Live Action’s fine-grain packet and flow telemetry become the ultimate source of truth for what is happening on the network–further empowering network and security teams alike.
LiveAction was recognized as a Mature Platform offering, Strong Challenger and Outperformer in the 2024 GigaOm Radar Report for Network Observability, which evaluates key vendors in the category. The report discusses LiveAction’s observability strategy in leveraging the network as a vantage point for conducting application and traffic analysis to extract intelligence for network and security teams. The analyst also highlighted LiveAction’s commitment to innovation, citing machine learning and advanced analytics for automated root cause analysis as well as application usage and performance baselining that enables automatic anomaly detection and alerts.
The transaction is expected to close in October, financial terms were not disclosed.
