Symantec Tuesday announced plans to acquire Relicore, a provider of datacenter management software, as part of a bid to round out its offerings for datacenter customers.
The acquisition is expected to be completed during the middle of this month. Financial terms were not disclosed.
Symantec is buying Relicore to get its hands on Relicore Clarity, a management tool that offers the ability to discover and track changes to application and server components in a datacenter. This eliminates the need to track changes manually and can speed up troubleshooting efforts in the event that an upgrade causes a problem, Symantec said.
The software can also help to ensure that policies required by regulations, such as Sarbanes-Oxley, are enforced with related systems, the company said
Relicore Clarity will be available as a standalone product through Symantec's sales channel from March 1, assuming the acquisition is completed as planned, the company said.
