The latter specifically refers to the ease in which developers can extend Splunk’s capabilities to other apps, applying their AIOps and DevSecOps best practices and principles! Developers can start here. The key characteristics of the Splunk Observability Cloud are Resilience, Security, Scalability, and EXTENSIBILITY.Customer success story: As a customer-obsessed bank with ultra-rapid growth, Nubank turned to Splunk to optimize data flows, analytics applications, customer support functions, and insights-obsessed IT monitoring.Security information and event management (SIEM) on the Splunk platform is enhanced with end-to-end visibility and platform extensibility, with machine learning and automation (AIOps), with risk-based alerting, and with Federated Search (i.e., Observability on-demand).The new Splunk Enterprise 9.0 release enables DevSecOps users to gain more insights from Observability data with Federated Search, with the ability to correlate ops with security alerts, and with Edge Management, all in one platform.Splunk Enterprise 9.0 is here, now! Explore and test-drive it (with a free trial) here.The latest updates to the Splunk platform address the complexities of multi-cloud and hybrid environments, enabling cybersecurity and network big data functions (e.g., log analytics and anomaly detection) across distributed data sources and diverse enterprise IT infrastructure resources.Observability for Unified Security with AI (Artificial Intelligence) and Machine Learning on the Splunk platform empowers enterprises to operationalize data for use-case-specific functionality across shared datasets.Here is a list of my top moments, learnings, and musings from this year’s Splunk. The dominant references everywhere to Observability was just the start of awesome brain food offered at Splunk’s. And the goodness doesn’t stop there.” Continue reading my thoughts on Observability at Observability meets AI – it is part of the complete AIOps package: ‘keeping an eye on the AI.’ Observability delivers actionable insights, context-enriched data sets, early warning alert generation, root cause visibility, active performance monitoring, predictive and prescriptive incident management, real-time operational deviation detection (6-Sigma never had it so good!), tight coupling of cyber-physical systems, digital twinning of almost anything in the enterprise, and more. But the power, value, and imperative of observability does not stop there. Observability is a business strategy: what you monitor, why you monitor it, what you intend to learn from it, how it will be used, and how it will contribute to business objectives and mission success. The key difference is this: monitoring is what you do, and observability is why you do it. Do not confuse observability with monitoring (specifically, with IT monitoring). “Observability emerged as one of the hottest and (for me) most exciting developments of the year. I have written and spoken frequently and passionately about Observability in the past couple of years. One of the first major attractions for me to attend this event is found in the primary descriptor of the Splunk Platform - it is appropriately called the Splunk Observability Cloud, which includes an impressive suite of Observability and Monitoring products and services. I was able to see a lot, learn a lot, be impressed a lot, and ponder a lot about all of the wonderful features, functionalities, and future plans for the Splunk platform. None of that was necessary on the Splunk. That’s good for you, but it often means that you don’t attend all of the sessions that you would like because of the requisite rushing from venue to venue. If you have ever attended a major expo at one of the major Vegas hotels, you know that there is a lot of walking between different sessions - literally, miles of walking per day. What I missed in-person was more than compensated for by the incredible online presentations by Splunk leaders, developers, and customers. Consequently I missed the incredible in-person experience of the brilliant speakers on the main stage, the technodazzle of 100’s of exhibitors’ offerings in the exhibit arena, and the smooth hip hop sounds from the special guest entertainer - guess who? While the event was live in-person in Las Vegas, I attended virtually from my home office.
