Package Your Splunk Application

Find yourself getting lost providing solutions for your user's massive amounts of IT data? Let Splunk come to the rescue. Splunk can eat and index massive amounts of data, including server configuration files, historical server trajectories, power consumption, network traffic, database writes, mail messages, and just about anything else as long as it's timestamped and looks like text. Using your domain experience and Splunk's powerful indexing and search features, you can package up a solution providing your users a detailed window into their IT data.
