Splunk IT Service Intelligence (ITSI) vs. VictoriaMetrics Community

Splunk ITSI is a great tool (and toolbox) for combining together numerous and varied monitoring regimes to bring more holistic analysis and reduce alert fatigue. By leveraging the Splunk ITSI service and KPI modeling regime, ecosystem telemetry can be turned into a more reliable, clearer, high-level perspective on the current state of your components and services.

Best suited, where your data is highly cardinal since it does a better job at maintaining it than other competitors. It is also well suited if you are using Prometheus and are looking for something that is less hungry for resources in comparison since the migration would be easier. But in case the company is small and wants a solution which is cheap and relies on built-in visualizations, it is not something that is suited. Although it takes fewer resources than Prometheus, it is still resource-intensive and attracts a high cost for maintenance.

• ITSI really needs a robust splunk log ingestion infrastructure at its core
• ITSI requires a great engineering team to build out the automated discovery and topology
• Unless you use an API to build the topology, the view can quickly become static

• Community and Eco system -> Although it supports the ecosystem of Prometheus, it is still troublesome for someone who's not using Prometheus
• Configuration is not so easy, especially if you are a beginner, you will struggle a bit. Even the documentation is not so welcoming for beginners
• Built-in Visualisation is bare minimal, leading almost everyone to use some other extension/tool

We have replaced our monitoring platform with Splunk & ITSI, and with the success, it's seen at our organization thus far we would be hard-pressed to pivot to another tool. Frankly, our business partners and application teams love Splunk & ITSI.

Splunk IT Service Intelligence (ITSI) is a platform with extended functionality and provides various functionalities which can be utilized to improve the efficiency and accuracy in analyzing the data and detecting the attacks.

During POC, pre-planning, and implementation, we have had interactions with numerous folks at Splunk. Everyone from sales & engineering to markets analysts to specific IT component SMEs, and a small professional services engagement to get started. They have all been exceptionally helpful and go above and beyond the call of duty. They actively reach out to ensure success is being realized and find ways to help proactively, instead of having to simply open support cases with the vendor.

Splunk has raised itself as a platform not just as a tool unlike other products in the market. If I talk about Moogsoft it also has similar capabilities but Splunk ITSI has more visibility and its GUI is making a different impact on the users. ServiceNow and Splunk are equally capable products however Splunk seems to have more tech-savvy people tools than ServiceNow.

Prometheus only support PromQL and it is very complex with different exporter required for different requirement like Windowsexporter,linixexporter,sqlexporter etc but VictoriaMetrics is very simple comapred to it. VictoriaMetrics support both PromQL and MetricQL and can be integrated with Graphana easily. It is very easy to setup and learn compared to mutiple Prometheus exporters

• Splunk ITSI has reduced the number of alerts exposed to our Network Operations Center by 100x while increasing the context around outages.
• Splunk ITSI has increased the accuracy of our incident detection by leveraging the Event Analytics system to weigh the behavior of the many characteristics of each component together instead of independently.
• Splunk ITSI has reduced our incident MTTR (mean time to restore) by detecting issues faster, presenting them more clearly, and surfacing the salient details about the underlying issue.

• Lowered our infra costs in comparison with our older tools
• Need minimal effort for migration since it already supports Prometheus ecosystem
• Saved on Storage costs
