Splunk Cloud Platform is a data platform service thats help users search, analyze, visualize and act on data. The service can go live in as little as two days, and with an IT backend managed by Splunk experts.
The IBM Concert Fits well in below scenarios:1 - A Supply Chain Team Needs Real‑Time Scenario Modeling2 - When a large enterprise is stuck in spreadsheets, several files, inconsistent assumptions, and a month‑long forecasting cycle. The IBM Concert Automates data consolidation from ERP, CRM, and HR systems, and provides a single, governed model for all contributors. IBM Concert is less appropriate for Small Teams that Primarily Use Spreadsheets.
Splunk is excellent when all your data is in one location. Its ability to correlate all that data is intuitive (once the hurdle of learning the query language is overcome). It is also easy to standardize the presentation of information to the company. When data is siloed/standalone, other systems can be cheaper and faster to implement.
This SIEM consolidates multiple data points and offers several features and benefits, creating custom dashboards and managing alert workflows.
Splunk Cloud provides a simple way to have a central monitoring and security solution. Though it does not have a huge learning curve, you should spend some time learning the basics.
Splunk Cloud enables me to create and schedule statistical reports on network use for Management.
So far we have been happy with the program and believe that it will grow with us as we continue to grow and thrive. This program has scalability for smaller to large companies allowing you to grow together. It is a learning curve but once learned it really is a time saving program.
I would say that any new users will require adequate time to get used to the application interface. Other than that, the overall look and feel looks great, like other applications.
Splunk AI Assistant for SPL is good tool, as I said, it is really useful for educational purpose, taking in its hands small and simple tasks (ex:small query dashboard,...), but it's not a ten because the contextual memory for complex issues/dashboarding/reports etc can be limited, and can sometime suggets none optimized query which are not always checked by teammates and can cause issue on the long term.
Splunk Cloud support is sorely lacking unfortunately. The portal where you submit tickets is not very good and is lacking polish. Tickets are left for days without any updates and when chased it is only sometimes you get a reply back. I get the feeling the support team are very understaffed and have far too much going on. From what I know, Splunk is aware of this and seem to be trying to remedy it.
IBM Concert has been selected to complement another solution from the IBM catalogue, with which integration has been validated and which provides access via a single entry point; this solution is called IBM Instana.The aim was to enhance certificate and vulnerability management in order to secure applications across different environments
Vs elastic: - SPL's statistical functions superior to KQL for complex correlations - Better enterprise support, less operational overhead - Splunk Cloud Platform's detection engineering more mature vs Sentinel: - SPL more powerful than KQL for custom analytics - Better cross-platform visibility (non-Azure environments) vs Datadog - SPL enables deeper forensic Investigations - Superior compliance/audit capabilities
