Rocana

Rocana (formerly ScalingData) was an IT operations analytics company founded in 2014 in San Francisco and backed by GV. Its product captured and analyzed all machine data from all sources across data-center infrastructure, keeping it online and queryable for years so operations teams could perform root-cause analysis and surface emerging IT problems before they caused outages. The company raised roughly $19.4M before being acquired by Splunk in 2017, after which the independent Rocana product and brand were wound down. It was surfaced as a GV portfolio company and added to the API Evangelist network. Enrichment on 2026-07-21 confirmed there is no live public website (rocana.com no longer resolves), no developer portal, no API, and no client packages — the company no longer operates independently.

Rocana is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Frontier Tech, IT Operations, Analytics, and Observability.
