What pricing options apply to Splunk Cloud Platform?
Workload Pricing measured with Splunk Virtual Compute units (SVCs) and Ingest Pricing measured in GB/day for select deployments.
What capabilities are available in Security and IT Cloud Foundations?
Cloud Foundations are Security and IT use case aligned paths to access the Splunk Cloud Platform with preinstalled applications aligned to help you get started quickly, available with the workload pricing model.
What does Workload Pricing license metric “Number of SVCs” mean?
Under the Workload Pricing model, Splunk Cloud Platform offers license allocation based on compute capacity, unlike ingest licensing which is based on data volume, measured in SVC units. Splunk Virtual Compute (SVC) is a unit of cloud compute, memory and I/O resources. These, in turn, are primarily driven by search quantity and complexity as well as daily indexing volume. Workload pricing is a value oriented pricing option that can help align your Splunk investment with your search activity and provide the flexibility to bring data volume without ingest limits.
What does the license metric “Index Volume/Day” mean?
Available to current Splunk Cloud Platform customers and select deployments, the traditional ingest-based pricing model is based purely on your data volume requirements. We determine the total plan price by multiplying your desired daily index volume by the unit price per GB.
Do the pricing plans include Technical Support?
Yes, Splunk product purchases include support. Support offerings include all major and minor software updates and technical support. You can find more information about our Support offerings here.

What pricing options apply to Splunk Enterprise?
Workload Pricing using virtual CPUs and Ingest Pricing measured in GB/day for select deployments.
What does the workload pricing license metric “Number of vCPUs” mean?
Under the workload pricing model for Splunk Enterprise, Splunk offers a license allocation based on compute capacity of your infrastructure, unlike ingest licensing which is based on data volume, measured using Virtual Central Processing Units (vCPUs). This industry standard, value-oriented metric aligns your Splunk investment with your search activity providing you flexibility to bring in data volume without ingest limits.
What does the Ingest license metric “Index Volume/Day” mean?
Under the Ingest (volume-based) pricing model, Splunk Enterprise software is priced by how much data you send into your Splunk installation in a day. We recommend that you purchase a license size that aligns with the maximum amount of data you expect to send to Splunk in one day. With this pricing model, you pay once to index the data and then can perform unlimited searches against that data, as well as store it for as long as you like. You also have complete flexibility in infrastructure deployment, with no restriction on the number of nodes, cores or sockets.
Do I get a volume discount if I buy a larger Splunk Enterprise license?
Yes. Splunk Enterprise pricing has built-in volume discounts for both workload- and ingest-based pricing models.
For Workload Pricing, you pay a reduced per vCPU price as you scale up. For Ingest Pricing, you pay a reduced price per GB per day as the amount ingested increases. For example, the unit price per GB decreases by more than 50% as total daily index volume grows from 1GB/day to 100 GB/day.
Can I buy an index volume not mentioned here?
Yes. You can buy any index volume from 1 GB/day to multiple terabytes of data per day. If you are looking for pricing at at a particular index volume, please contact us and we will get the pricing information to you.
What license types apply?
These pricing options apply to on-premises term licenses.
Do I have to make any change to my traditional Ingest Pricing for Splunk Enterprise?
No. Splunk now offers a number of different pricing options depending on an organization's needs. Traditionally, Splunk Enterprise was priced by index volume. While this pricing is still available, qualifying customers now have the option to purchase via Workload Pricing, which is determined by the amount of compute power assigned to a Splunk instance. Visit the Pricing updates page for more information.
Do the pricing plans include Technical Support?
Yes, Splunk product purchases include support. Support offerings include all major and minor software updates and technical support. You can find more information about our Support offerings here.
What licensing options are available for Splunk Enterprise?
Splunk offers Term Licenses for Splunk Enterprise. A Term License is for a specific time period, usually a year, during which you are allowed to access and use the software. At the end of the term, you must stop using the software or purchase new licenses. Splunk also offers multi-year term license options for customers interested in a longer term commitment.
For the Annual (Term) License, the per unit price quoted above includes Standard support. If you renew your Annual (Term) License at the end of your license period, you will also get Standard support included.
