Splunk Observability Cloud vs. Tanzu tc Server

Its great if you need real-time visibility across complex or regulated environments. Also strong for hybrid or multi-cloud setups where uptime, observability and fast IR are required. It’s probably overkill for smaller teams or environments that don’t have constant changes or compliance reporting needs. It's expensive and has a steep learning curve. Also, in my opinion, do not get yourself into a consumption based model. Costs can certainly get out of control quickly.

-Pivotal tc Server is best used as web application server on a virtual machine for middleware purposes -I feel it is less appropriate to be used with utilizing data that does not need to be secure

• The first one is its Kubernetes container monitoring.
• I really like this features because as we know how much K8s is vast and to manually monitor each part of the Kubernetes it takes so much time but Splunk Observability Cloud makes it easier. And even once we integrate K8s with Splunk Observability Cloud it gives us some prebuilt dashboards which gives holistic view of our Cluster and its nodes, pods, etc.
• The dashbaord feature of Splunk Observability Cloud, it gives us full flexibility to customize our dashboard with a wide range of predefined chart types.
• Now it also supports OTEL, which is a plus point for observability. As now everyone is moving towards Otel and in current market there are only few tools who supports OTEL based integrations, Splunk Observability Cloud is one out of them.

• send a receive HL7 message securely
• details issues and errors in logs
• very reliable uptime record with no system crashes

• You can use table-like functionality to generate dashboards, but these queries are heavy on the system.
• It could be easier to give insight into what type of line parsing is used for specific documents in a company-managed environment and/or show ways to gain the insights needed.
• I would like to see ways to anonymize specific data for shared reports without pre-formatting this in a dashboard on which reports could be based.

• User management and administration access account setup has room for improvement and can be more user friendly and clearly list how many admin accounts we can setup
• password complexity for user accounts need to be updated
• although all logs list all errors some of the tomcat errors are not time stamped

Good: Stable system with low error rate Easy to use for simple use cases Bad: UI is not very clear for complex usage Mobile view (when logged in from phone) is bad No library for .net

When there is an issue, it’s a win if one can easily identify the root cause. To do the same, it should allow the user to dig deep with multiple data points and compare the data and identify the anomaly. In this use case, it’s good to drive from Splunk 011y.

Splunk Infrastructure Monitoring provides far superior options for anybody using a complex hybrid multi-cloud environment and allows both your SOC and NOC to work together on the same data while driving their own insights. We found other products are still in the old world view of servers and agents residing together within a single data centre, but modern apps are no longer like this.

We selected Pivotal tc Server opposed to Cent0s Linux because Pivotal tc Server is more reliable and causes less downtime , also better logging. I have used both

• Significantly reduced the MTTR (Mean Time To Recovery), which in turn has improved the end-user experience tremendously.
• Meets compliance requirements of security policies, audit, regulation, and forensics.
• Helps us to track/manage the resource usage on our cloud instances which has a direct implication on the recurring cost.

• one positive is that we can securely send patient data across to our food service dept.
• another positive is that we can integrate the communication with our patient tv terminals
• third positive is that there is less downtime because it is reliable
