Splunk Observability Cloud

We use it mainly to monitor infrastructure and application performance across multiple environments, but also as part of our broader security and compliance visibility stack. It helps us detect performance issues, and unusual activity before they turn into incidents. It helps with problem of fragmented monitoring and limited visibility across systems that have to meet regulatory requirement especially for HIPAA and PCI data . We use infrastructure monitoring, alerting, and real-time dashboards that support both IT operations and security response teams.

• Satisfies observability requirements for the reglatory requirements we have
• Significantly reduces time to detect and remediate potential threats
• Expensive to use. Ensure you are not on a consumption model.

I use Splunk Observability Cloud to monitor mainly my Cloud Infrastructure, FrontEnd and Backend applications. In our Organization, through the help of Splunk Observability Cloud multiple teams can easily troubleshoot their applications and infrastructures through the help of theri metrics and logs which helps us to reduce the MTTD and MTTR.

It solves so many problems like End to End Visibility, Real time correlations to reduce MTTD etc.

• Reduction in MTTD and MTTR, it helps us alot by reducting time to detect the exact issue in production environment which gives the positive impact to our business. Because of this we have improved our uptime and Service reliability.
• It improves the observability across all business teams by a centralized observability tool, which gives us insights for all of our applications and infrastructures.
• We can easily identify the exact error and when & where it occurs, everything we can easily identify

In our organization, Splunk Observability Cloud is a critical component of our end-to-end monitoring and observability strategy. We use it to gain deep visibility into the health, performance, and reliability of our cloud-native applications and infrastructure in real time.

• Made the logging and observability much easier
• Proactive Incident Detection & Resolution

We're using Splunk Observability Cloud to augment our onprem Splunk infrastructure. It gives us telemetry into our hybrid infrastructure.

The leading scope for using Splunk is log parsing and proactive monitoring. Combining logs from multiple sources, discerning trends for display on dashboards, and acting on specific triggers (errors, etc.).

• It has helped us figure out where specific errors occurred, leading to fewer downtimes on incidents.
• It has provided insights into multiple teams and multiple platforms.
• Due to its pricing model, we did have to balance data intake versus impact and traceability on the development and production environments, which was a bit of a hassle.
