MachineGPT: Speaking the Language of Machines to Shape the Future of AI

At.conf25, we took a bold step forward—introducing the concept of MachineGPT, which brings the power of generative AI to one of the most overlooked resources: machine data. MachineGPT speaks the language of machines. Just like ChatGPT learned the grammar of words and sentences to understand questions and respond in human language, MachineGPT can learn the hidden “grammar” of how systems behave through machine data.

Introducing the Splunk Technology Add on for Ollama Illuminating Shadow AI Deployments

Without strong visibility and governance, local LLMs risk replicating the fragmented, unsupervised sprawl once seen in shadow IT, complicating security postures and making it difficult for organizations to ensure proper oversight and compliance as these powerful AI tools become embedded in daily workflows. To address this challenge, The Splunk Threat Research Team has released the Splunk Technology Add-on for Ollama that provides comprehensive monitoring and observability capabilities specifically designed for local LLM deployments.

Conquer Complexity, Accelerate Resolution with the AI Troubleshooting Agent in Splunk Observability Cloud

The digital landscape has transformed dramatically, and with it, the demands on our systems have grown exponentially. Traditional monitoring tools struggle to provide sufficient insight into complex, distributed, cloud-native environments. Observability is the answer, moving beyond merely knowing "what" is happening to understanding "why" it's happening, and its impact on user experience and business outcomes.

Building the Next Generation of Defenders: From the Classroom to the SOC of the Future

Singapore’s digital economy is growing at a remarkable pace, but with that growth comes a challenge: the nation is on track to need more than a million additional digitally skilled workers by 2026, particularly in cybersecurity, data, and AI. This is not just about filling jobs — it’s about ensuring the country’s long-term digital resilience.

Unify Observability, Surface Business Impact, and Solve Problems Using AI Agents with Latest Splunk Observability Innovations

In September at.conf25, we announced how Splunk is shaping the future of digital resilience in the age of AI. Agentic AI is rewriting what it takes to build a leading observability practice. As vibe coding gains steam, applications will be built with less human involvement. At the same time, the rise of AI agents demands specialized telemetry to ensure models are performing as intended—aligned to their business purpose and cost.

Splunk Advances the OpenTelemetry Project with Its Latest Donation, the OpenTelemetry Injector

Splunk is very excited to be sponsoring Kubecon North America once again, kicking off this week in Atlanta, GA. As many know, Splunk is one of the top contributors to the OpenTelemetry project. We’re happy to have sent many of the Splunkers who serve as project maintainers and contributors to lead SIG meetings and engage with the greater community in the OpenTelemetry Observatory, sponsored by Splunk.

Choosing the Right Load Balancing Approach for Your Network: Static, Dynamic, & Advanced Techniques

Load Balancing is the process of distributing network traffic among multiple server resources. The objective of load balancing is to optimize certain network operations. Ensuring that a workload is spread evenly among the computing resources, this “balanced load” improves application responsiveness and accommodates unexpected traffic spikes — all without compromising application performance. Let’s take a deeper look at this important networking function.

Why Simplicity Beats Sprawl in Modern IT

In enterprise boardrooms today, what was once an arms race to adopt more tools and chase every new capability has now crystallized into a single mandate, “Make the platform work harder without spending more.” The industry has reached a saturation point. The buyers who once greenlit expansions now demand efficiency. And the ones who built the stack? They’re rethinking it entirely. It’s no wonder platformization is taking off.
