That’s a wrap on the Opening Keynote at .conf25 — and with it came one of the best moments our entire year: handing out the Splunkie Awards!
The people nominated for Splunkies are so impressive, and every year, we’re blown away by the innovation, creativity, and sheer brilliance. We’re proud to call them our customers and partners. Whether they’re unlocking insights in seconds, powering major transformation, or helping others become more resilient — they’re doing it with Splunk at the heart of their success. And we’re honored to be a part of their journey.
This year’s Splunkie Awards were proudly presented by Mimi Shalsh and Lavanya Gopalakrishnan, leaders at Splunk.
Each winner received a newly designed Splunkie Award trophy, some seriously awesome swag, and, of course, eternal bragging rights.
