Rackspace acquires Exceptional Cloud Services, a San Francisco-based cloud-related development tools maker, for an undisclosed sum.
Exceptional is the developer of Exceptional.io and Airbrake.io, a pair of software tools helping developers resolve issues by tracking errors in web applications. It also offers the Redis To Go Redis instance manager.
Rackspace will leverage the acquisition towards expanding its developer solution offering.
"[The Exceptional Cloud Services] team shares a common vision and culture," Rackspace says. "We are very committed to the open cloud and open systems. In the long term, we believe that open systems innovate more quickly and produce better quality outcomes. And, their product solves a real need in a quality way."
