Another .conf is almost here! As I write this, my team and I are focused on making sure .conf18 is an amazing and worthwhile experience for IT professionals—for Splunk ninjas and newbies alike. At this .conf, you’ll learn more about our unique vision for IT and the many investments we’ve made to turn that vision into reality. We’ll showcase some product updates, and we might even preview something special we’re cooking up.
But most of all, we’re excited to show you how IT organizations can achieve predictive IT with Splunk IT Service Intelligence, enabling them to forecast problems 30-40 minutes ahead of time and prevent issues before they happen.
From “Anatomy of a Successful Events Analytics Deployment” to “Zipkin and Splunk: Tracing Transactions Across Your Ecosystem,” .conf will have over 40 sessions on a wide range of IT topics. Here are just some of the sessions I’m excited about this year:
IT1396 - Transunion and a Time Traveling DeLorean: MTTR Fading Like Marty McFly
Find out how financial services provider TransUnion is using the power of predictive IT to speed root cause determination and achieve faster resolution.IT1800 - IT Service Intelligence: IT and the Business Working Together at Dell
Discover the benefits of exposing both IT and business KPIs to all stakeholders. This session explores the value of correlating cause and effect between IT and business performance metrics.IT1695 - Domino’s Delivery of a Faster Response Was No Standard Order
Don’t miss hearing how Domino's Pizza transformed a complex, multi-ticket and time-consuming process into an automated workflow.IT1425- 2018 State of DevOps Expert Panel
A panel of experts from market-leading companies will discuss and debate the state of DevOps in this session that promises to expand on what we learned from the 2017 State of DevOps Report.
If you haven’t already checked out the full list of .conf18 IT sessions, you can find them here; there are IT sessions for all skill levels across a wide range of topics. But that’s not all we’ll have—you should definitely check out the source=*Pavilion for demos that show how Splunk is solving some of the most pressing IT problems. I’m looking forward to seeing you there (and at the Search Party)!
