Agent free monitoring
Splunk RUM helps in identifying the pattern and behaviour of the end-user when he is interacting with your application. It helps in identifying what services are most frequently and least browsed by end-user. Also, it helps in identifying bottlenecks in case services are slow or end-user interaction is taking too much time capturing their response time, and errors (if any).
- Identifying brute attacks.
- Helps in identifying end user behaviour.
- Capturing pages which have slow response time.
- No live stream of data.
- Splunk is entirely dependent on logs which means no logs then you can't perform a Splunk query.
- Splunk RUM needs to be a bit simplified in terms of user interaction.
- Capture metrics related to client side performance.
- Http errors ranging from 4xx-5xx.
- Response time, stability of page.
- Splunk is a single platform to perform all your analysis from front end to backend and all services.
- Splunk licensing is quite costly.
- Splunk is an excellent tool for data engineering and cyber security purpose.
We are having other monitoring tools like AppDynamics, Dynatrace, Datadog and already using their end-user monitoring capability. Most of our customers are looking for agent-free monitoring where they don't want to instrument any agent on their client-side (as it might interfere with application functionality) and still want to capture important metrics. I guess in that case Splunk RUM comes into the picture picking up those important metrics without instrumenting any agent.

Elasticsearch is an open-source app with all that it's mean. It's a great competitor yet it will require us many man-hours to create a solution that will provide similar to what Splunk already has out of the box. Therefore we preferred to have Splunk as our product in order to increase time to market for SIEM solutions.

- Correlation of issue for Complex application.
- Easy to adopt user experience setup and interactive reporting.
- Error handling and performing automated workflow based on the known error.
- The setting baseline for AI-driven troubleshooting requires more documentation to implement.
- Room for integration with open sourced or inhouse monitoring tools.
- Required more flexibility on setting up mobile OS performance metrics.
- Complete User-Activity Capture.
- Eliminate Customer-Facing Issues.
- End-to-End Visibility.
- MTTR reduced.
- Integration with different tool made the collaboration faster.
