challenge

Runaway observability usage is costing your business without improving outcomes

When dozens of teams use their own monitoring tools, troubleshooting can break down into chaos without a single source of truth and effective cost and usage controls.

A visual single source of truth and unified incident response to improve MTTR

Splunk Observability Cloud helps centralized observability and platform engineers supply their engineering teams with shared data, context and workflows from the frontend to backend and through to customer experience. When a performance issue or outage occurs, teams have one unified platform for faster issue resolution.

A single dashboard provides data for engineering, DevOps, SREs, SecOps, peer engineering and microservices, operations, and business metrics

Enterprise controls to avoid overages and tool sprawl

Splunk offers budget stability with simple, single metric pricing and usage and consumption controls so you can easily track and forecast costs as you scale. Plus, integrated usage and data consumption controls ensure that the right people get only the data they need without paying for excess.

Built-in content and OpenTelemetry instrumentation to standardize on best practices

Splunk is 100% OpenTelemetry native and supports Infrastructure-as-Code so you can instrument once, standardize on deployments and reduce toil as you scale. Additionally, pre-built content based on best practices enables seamless onboarding and knowledge sharing.

To build our own solution like what Splunk has would take someone too long, but we completed the Splunk dashboard in three or four days thanks to out-of-the-box templates.

A platform engineer builds and maintains an internal developer platform (IDP) that helps software delivery systems run seamlessly. They collaborate with the team of developers and senior management to ensure that the infrastructure is reliable, scalable and capable of handling the needs of the applications over time.

OpenTelemetry is an open source observability framework. It offers vendor-agnostic or vendor-neutral APIs, software development kits (SDKs) and other tools for collecting telemetry data from cloud-native applications and their supporting infrastructure to understand their performance and health.

OpenTelemetry offers:

  • Consistency: OpenTelemetry provides a consistent path for capturing telemetry data and transmitting it to a backend without changing instrumentation, offering a de facto standard for adding observability to cloud-native apps. Developers and IT can now devote more time to creating new app features rather than wrestling with their instrumentation.
  • Simpler choice: Because OpenTelemetry merges the code of OpenTracing and OpenCensus frameworks, you get the best of both in a single solution. And there’s no risk from switching to OpenTelemetry if you were previously using one or the other.
  • Streamlined observability: OpenTelemetry consolidates the telemetry data needed to determine if systems are functioning properly, understand where issues may be compromising performance and fix root causes, potentially before service is interrupted — resulting in greater stability and reliability for supporting business processes.
