Data lakes have emerged as a revolutionary solution in the current digital landscape, where data growth is at a 28% CAGR with no signs of slowing. These repositories, capable of storing vast amounts of raw data in their native format in a vendor-neutral way, offer unprecedented flexibility and scalability.

When we discuss observability for applications running in Kubernetes, most people immediately default to Metrics, Logs, and Traces – commonly referred to as the “three pillars.” These pillars are just different types of telemetry – signals that can be fed into observability platforms to help understand how an application behaves. But did you know that Kubernetes offers another valuable signal? When combined with the other signals, you get MELT.

Elastic Observability is fast, simple, and built for the future Businesses everywhere are facing a challenging environment: increased cost pressures coupled with high volumes of data generated by complex, distributed, cloud-native environments. As a result, teams need smarter analytics, access, and retention across all their data — instantly and from anywhere — to resolve issues, make decisions, and ensure resiliency.

In the previous blog, we introduced what makes a bad alert and how being able to simply customise and fine-tune your detectors is critical to creating great alerts. The first category of detectors in Splunk Observability Cloud that we dived into was the out-of-the-box offering called AutoDetect. Customising and subscribing to these detectors is a great way to get up and running straight away with industry best-practice alerts and bring down MTTx.

For centuries there have been many wise sayings on how to deal with disruptions and prevail amidst uncertain circumstances. Read on to learn how Splunk and Bosch Rexroth are building the next-generation factory to help manufacturers elevate their resilience and take advantage of new market trends and operating models.

Managed Service for Prometheus now lets you instrument an application with metrics once, and deploy it on Compute Engine, GKE, or Cloud Run.

In a perfect world, there would be no issues with the operating system and no problems with the applications. Unfortunately, this isn’t a perfect world. System failures can and will occur, and when they do, it is the responsibility of system administrators to diagnose and resolve the issues. But where can system administrators begin the search for solutions when problems arise? The answer is Windows event logs.

As businesses grapple with increasing data volumes, the need for practical tools to manage and use this data has never been greater. High-quality tools are great — but imagine what you could accomplish with one that made all the others in your toolbox even better? That’s exactly how we design every Cribl solution — we exist to help IT and Security teams get more out of their existing infrastructure.

Effectively managing both public and private Splunk Apps across multiple Splunk environments poses a considerable challenge, demanding significant time and effort with the potential for tedious and manual tasks. Recognizing this complexity, the Splunk Cloud Service has been progressively introducing additional features and capabilities to streamline and simplify these intricate administrative responsibilities.
