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.

Splunk ITSI is being used to mitigate hardware resource issues before they become a problem and troubleshoot issues for our teams.
  • Asset group overview.
  • Detailed metrics.
  • Customization to meet customer requirements.
  • Easier navigation for new users.
  • KPI responses.
  • Deconflicting multiple entity IDs.
ITSI is best suited for an environment with 100 or more devices or in any domain where monitoring critical devices is a must. The ability to customize KPIs and create alert actions is imperative.

We are utilising ITSI to monitor the health of our business operations and IT services. We use a range of KPI approaches to capture business health for stakeholder reporting, as well as lower level IT Ops monitoring of hardware and microservices.
  • Reducing alerting noise
  • Improving visibility of services
  • Great for finding root cause of issues
  • Should be easier to build notable events with rich data
  • It should be possible to build custom dashboards with standard ITSI UI components
ITSI is great for a range of monitoring applications, not limited to just IT Ops monitoring as some might imagine, it is actually very good at monitoring business objectives, SLAs and other non-stereotypical IT metrics.

My organization has used Splunk for many years however my team just started ingesting our data. We started off small and are figuring out what Splunk can do. Once you have the correct search results, the power is incredible. We can see how many calls come into our network, what errors are occurring and where exactly they are. In fact, for the first time, we used our dashboard (which hasn't been made public to the rest of the organization yet) to troubleshoot a possible outage. The on-call person opened the dashboard, and we knew right away it wasn't our team’s issue. The time we saved by not manually pulling calls from SQL, looking for errors within those calls, and simply digging through our network to find where the issue was occurring allowed the on-call person to immediately open a ticket with a vendor. We were able to show when the issue started, where the issue was, and defer to the vendor even though they had not seen the issue. If we can find this with the little data we are ingesting, just imagine what we can do with more. The possibilities are endless!
  • 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.
  • Something like SQL IntelliSense - the feature reads internal metadata and lists all of the available objects and their properties, thereby helping people effectively and quickly write SPL.
  • Personalization for things like saving reports, datasets, dashboards of others
Splunk IT Service Intelligence is great for visualizing data and creating dashboards, and reports. Drilling down through the data is easy and shows things you may not have thought to look for. Seeing the data laid out in this fashion makes it easy and quick to get what you want. If you’re not well versed in SPL you maybe have difficulty finding what you need in a hurry.

ITSI is a competitive tool that helps with highlighting issues and more importantly where the root cause lies. There is not much of a learning curve to get value out of ITSI, especially compared to the competitors out there. Spunks user groups are also a big help for quick responses.
  • Out of the box value
  • Problem identification
  • Root cause analysis
  • Better highlight what you can click on and what is static.
It can show end-to-end visibility into your infrastructure all in one view. Not having to go to specific and separate devices or logs is invaluable in keeping services flowing (i.e great uptime.) Splunk as a whole can cover all of its infrastructure services security etc and this is just a niche or specific tool in the toolset)

We are using Splunk IT Service Intelligence (ITSI) as the centerpiece of our Observability strategy for multiple product lines that provide interactive television services. It helps us to ensure the proper functionality of our services and the surrounding ecosystem as well as reducing mean time to service restoration when outages occur. Our Splunk ITSI system observes telemetry from our data center and clouds infrastructures as well as telemetry collected from our customer media consumption endpoint software on set-top boxes, IPTV streamers, mobile devices and web browsers.
  • Modeling low-level machine, device, and network metrics into high-level ecosystem services
  • Powerful adaptive thresholds for detecting Service and KPI anomalous behavior
  • Powerful toolbox for canned and customized event analytics pipeline providing true AI operations
  • Direct access to (integration with) all of the numerous and varied Splunk ecosystem data sources and types
  • Better integrations with "infrastructure as code" workflows via tools like Terraform
  • More support for adaptive thresholding with numerous and changing dynamic entities
  • Better ability to surface details of unhappy or anomalous KPIs and entities that contributed to episode production
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.

We use ITSI along with our proprietary Splunk App for business process observability solution iControl to provide deep down details of business SLA breaches related to IT-related outages ITSI helps us to tie together business insights with IT world in near-real-time and save precious time in finding call to action and precious time to find causes of outages.
  • Episode creation.
  • Deep dive view for RCA.
  • Dynamic thresholding.
  • Out of box modules to identify KPI's from RAW Data.
  • Easy integration with Incident Management Tool.
  • Keeping Service Tree Models up to date needs lots of work.
  • Modules to discover service dependency from Standard CMDB such as ServiceNow & others.
  • System friendly in terms of hardware needs for large-scale deployments.
ITSI is very effective in generating insights from raw data & can quickly provide insights into complex problems with its out of box deep-dive views.

Business Service Monitoring & service dependency is another area where ITSI effortlessly provides framework to map & monitor it.

Surely needs boost in performance section where it runs into frequent problems sighting hardware sizing problems as an excuse. It is happening from far too long across multiple customers.

It is the only real-time cloud monitoring platform for infrastructure as per my knowledge, it provides powerful visualization, proactive alerting of the organization. Splunk IT Service Intelligence (ITSI) has helped us greatly reduce the response time on critical incidents if not help us proactively detect one.
  • Deploy your own analytics in threat detection.
  • Architecture is scalable.
  • Health score calculation.
  • Should support Saas UEBA.
  • Pricing should be bundled and not on the number of employees.
  • A security model could be added to the UI.
ITSI is intuitive and presents a big selection of offerings for IT. ITSI offers various monitoring and event logging options which is very useful for the organization.

Splunk is being used by our infrastructure monitoring team to review events from different sets of infrastructure devices such as Networks, Servers, Storage, Databases and Security devices. Splunk is helping out our IT team by collecting the events from multiple data sources and aggregating all of them in a single glass pane.
  • Powerful AI engine.
  • Correlation.
  • Data collection methods.
  • Ease of administration.
  • Distributed architecture.
  • Monitoring capabilities within in itself.
  • AIOPS forecasting.
Splunk IT Service Intelligence (ITSI) is well suited for environments that have multiple data sources and need visibility in their activities like health status and need to be streamlined in a common stream of data events. Splunk ITSI is less appropriate if you wish to use this as an elementary layer tool.

Splunk ITSI FTW

Splunk ITS Service Intelligence is used to consolidate alerts from various IT tools. Along with other logs and performance data, it is used by infrastructure operations, application developers, DevOps and other stakeholders to quickly see service health of applications and the IT infrastructure components. It helps eliminate data silos and having to reach out to individual teams managing point solutions.
  • 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.
Some teams get excited when looking at ITSI service models and envision modeling the entire infrastructure. What gets lost in translation is breaking it down to services, and also ITSI is not a replacement for an APM solution. So using a proper APM solution to drive quick insights into specific transactions, then feeding that data to Splunk/ITSI is a better bet.
