BigPanda Hires Former ServiceNow Exec As VP of Product

Veteran Product Chief To Help Drive Leading IT Incident Response Automation Platform.

Mountain View, Calif., May 28, 2015 – BigPanda®, the data science platform for automating IT event correlation and incident response to reduce downtime, announced today that it has hired Dan Turchin as Vice President of Product.

”Our vision is about using data science to cut through the noise caused by IT alerts and events in enterprise data centers,” said BigPanda CEO Assaf Resnick. “Having founded a company in this space, and having been an early product leader at ServiceNow, Dan is an industry veteran who knows the challenges facing IT and has a proven record of success.”

BigPanda is a data science platform that eliminates IT alert noise and prioritizes relevant events to improve system performance and reliability. It notifies teams when critical incidents occur by clustering related alerts and correlating them with infrastructure changes.

Previously, Turchin was Chief Product Officer at AccelOps where he oversaw product and strategy. Prior to that, he was at ServiceNow as senior director of product strategy. He was co-founder and CEO of Aeroprise (acquired by BMC) and a founding board member at Rhomobile (acquired by Motorola). Additionally, he served in engineering roles at Walt Disney Company, Accenture and Searchbutton.

He holds a B.S. in Industrial Engineering and a B.A. in Sociology from Stanford University.

“The complexity of the modern data center environment has created an increasing dependence on software to enable intelligent approaches to service assurance. BigPanda’s data science makes it easy for IT teams to synthesize enormous volumes of machine data into actionable insights,” said Turchin. “It’s a hard problem that has constrained modern app adoption for years, and no one has solved it effectively until now.”
