- Business Problems Solved
Splunk IT Service Intelligence, or ITSI, is a versatile tool used by infrastructure monitoring teams, NOCs, command centers, and IT departments to manage and monitor various aspects of their infrastructure. Users leverage its capabilities to collect events from multiple data sources such as networks, servers, storage systems, databases, and security devices. Splunk ITSI aggregates this data on a single platform, providing a comprehensive view of the entire infrastructure for quick issue identification and root cause analysis.
One of the key use cases of Splunk ITSI is consolidating alerts from different IT tools to provide stakeholders with visibility into the health of services. This allows infrastructure operations, application developers, and DevOps teams to proactively address potential issues before they impact users. Splunk ITSI also monitors the performance and functionality of critical services, ensuring their proper functioning and reducing mean time to service restoration during outages.
In addition to traditional infrastructure elements, Splunk ITSI extends its monitoring capabilities to include telemetry from data centers, cloud infrastructures, and customer media consumption endpoints like set-top boxes, IPTV streamers, mobile devices, and web browsers. With real-time cloud monitoring and proactive alerting features, Splunk ITSI provides operational visibility into business health and hardware and microservices performance. It also supports event management, aggregation, incident creation, self-healing automation, and trend predictions in different environments.
By offering a single view of the entire topology through glass tables and pre-built content packs for real-time service monitoring, Splunk ITSI reduces response time for critical incidents while identifying root causes. Its user-friendly interface facilitates quick adoption among teams with varying skill levels in monitoring tools. Development teams also utilize Splunk ITSI to monitor system performance during high traffic events or peak times.
Overall, Splunk IT Service Intelligence is a powerful AIOps platform that brings together different areas of IT that were previously siloed. It helps manage major incidents effectively, monitor service availability, and limit downtime by quickly responding to outages.

Base User who inspires to be a Power User
- laying out dashboards to quickly see data
- Providing a trending map to see data over time
- Drilling down to find things you didn't even know you needed
- I'm not sure if it's my organization locking down Splunk or Splunk itself but it would be helpful to get more detailed errors when searching. A way of guiding the correct input to get results.

- Personalization for things like saving reports, datasets, dashboards of others
- Deep dive flexibility
- Integration machine learning
- Bulk entity import
- Adaptive thresholding

ITSI Enables Rapid Incident Resolution at Scale
- ITSI visualizes the dependency topology and layers in data
- ITSI grabs data from many disparate sources and creates an integrated view
- ITSI provides real-time insights by showing a timelines of metrics layered across various transactions
- 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
Enterprise ITSI at Scale. The Thoughts of a Team Lead.
- Clean user interface
- Easy to build new integrations
- Flexible and can be catered to your specific use case
- The terminology takes some getting used to: Aggregation policies, notable events, correlation searches, glass tables. If you're not familiar with ITSI, these terms can be a bit overwhelming and steepens the learning curve.
- We have had some technical issues with the underlying support when used in a multisite cluster. We've had to build in several points of redundancy to make sure it works as expected.
- I'd like to see additional types of notable events, like informational events that come in for when an incident is created or when an alert is acknowledged so all of those action steps can be viewed on the episode timeline without affecting the count of events.
ITSI converts your underutilized Splunk data into powerful KPIs and visibility, once you master its complexities
- Monitor hundreds of IT services by continuously tracking thousands of KPIs in a scalable way.
- Quickly identify problem areas by a combination of default visualizations and ability to create custom dashboards.
- Extremely configurable to effectively monitor nearly any KPI imaginable from Splunk.
- The extreme flexibility also makes it highly complex. Expert Splunk users are required to make full use of it.
- Documentation is insufficient and does not cover advanced use cases that ITSI is capable of supporting.
- Depending on how ITSI is configured, it can place heavy load on Splunk infrastructure. ITSI performance can be optimized in many ways but they are not always obvious.
- ITSI Events/Alerts (AKA Episode Review) has flexibility in it but still not as flexible as desired. However this can be compensated by directly querying ITSI's result data in Splunk.
Splunk ITSI FTW
- Show KPIs for each service.
- Show aggregated health scores.
- Increase transparency across large disparate organizations.
- Multiple ways to ingest the same data can be confusing (events vs. metrics).
- Glass tables can be a conflicting priority against normal Splunk dashboards.
- Proper setup for alerting requires content packs that could be included with the product directly.
- A separate license for ITSI on top of Splunk may make purchasing decisions difficult to justify.
