Use Cases and Deployment Scope
Splunk is used by our Engineering Department. Splunk has been a valuable and useful tool for our company to monitor errors occurring at all times. We love the real-time monitoring system that helps us detect errors and get the right people to handle them when needed to get things back up and running.
Pros
  • Love the real-time monitoring system.
  • Easy to use.
Cons
  • I have no suggestions.
Likelihood to Recommend
It is well suited with real-time monitoring and notifications sent when issues occur. It has been very helpful to monitor issues that applications are having so that we can get the right team to address these issues to get the company back up and running to continue business as normal.

For real time data analyzing get splunk.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
Spunk is a great tool. We use it for analyzing large chunks of data in the data center where the data is dynamic and continuously incoming from various events generated by all the servers. We also keep track of the data provided by the metrics generated which gives a good insight of what is going wrong in the data center.
Pros
  • Easy to scale with large data sets.
  • Real time analyzing.
  • Suport all types of data.
Cons
  • Doesn't provide optimized results with smaller size of data.
  • Costly.
Likelihood to Recommend
Spunk is a great log analyzing tool if the data is quite large and accepts widely used data format. It provides accurate real time analyzing. Most importantly, it is extensible. The problem with the free version is the data indexing limit whereas the professional version is quite costly for an individual.

Splunk Alerts - Great feature for real time exception handling

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We use Splunk for application alerts, reporting and debugging purposes. We have been using Splunk across multiple projects in our mobile development department. Splunk helps us to closely monitor application logs which are spread across multiple servers/jvm's. We get a consolidated, view of multiple log files in the Splunk dashboard. Splunk's real time indexing service is very efficient. It takes pre-defined key attributes of log files, creates a link to those attributes and displays it on the dashboard which can be further used to filter out results without writing any complex queries. We have created multiple alerts in Splunk to capture different scenarios, one of the most important alerts is the capturing of runtime exceptions (for eg. NullPointerException, Outofmemory Exception etc). This alert informs the development team immediately, resulting in immediate action to resolve that issue based on complexity.
Pros
  • Real time indexing of log files - This functionality helps us to track performance of the application during our monthly SOASTA run. We can see request coming and going to different services in real time.
  • Searches - Splunk queries help us to search multiple log files residing in different servers in one go, which makes debugging very easy in a distributed environment.
  • Alerts - Splunk alerts is an efficient tool which tells us before hand about issues in our production environment and gives us enough time to validate and fix those issues.
  • Reporting - We work in an SOA based environment where multiple services talk to each other, we use splunk to generate daily performance reports of each service which includes lookups, hits, failures etc.
Cons
  • We are using Splunk 6.0 version which is better in terms of performance as compared to its older versions, but it slows down, started using more server resources like memory, cpu time etc than expected, I guess this is one area where improvement is needed.
  • Splunk queries are slightly complex when it comes to new or less experienced people, if we can make it more simple that will be awesome. But I must say it is doing its job very well.
Likelihood to Recommend
Splunk is very well suited to our ecosystem. We have very complex distributed SOA based environment where applications are running on multiple jvm's configured on multiple servers to support high traffic load. Splunk has made everything transparent and now we can dig deep to figure out problems in no time. With Splunk, performance monitoring has reached the level where we are able to capture minor details, do analysis and take steps to improve.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
Splunk is utilized for creation of dashboards and log queries across many areas.
Pros
  • Quick log queries across different types of infrastructure
  • Adaptable dashboards for digesting large amounts of continuous data
  • Easy access and sharing of information via URL links
Cons
  • Building Splunk queries can be comber some without intricate knowledge of Splunk and the applications involved
  • Dashboard duplication for different areas can be difficult
  • Capturing all necessary data from cloud platforms is not always straightforward
Likelihood to Recommend
Real-time and historical log research is a glowing achievement for Splunk. Splunk is also quite effective at dashboard creation and presentation with high level or more granular investigation possible.
