At Splunk, our mission is to make machine data accessible, usable and valuable to everyone. And this overarching mission is what drives our company and product priorities.
Splunk is the leading platform for machine data analytics with over 5,200 organizations using Splunk (as of 7/1/13) – from tens of GB to many tens of TBs of data PER DAY.
Splunk software is optimized for real-time, low latency and interactivity.
Splunk software reliably collects and indexes all the streaming data from IT systems and technology devices in real-time - tens of thousands of sources in unpredictable formats and types.
The value from Splunking machine data is described as Operational Intelligence. This enables organizations to:
1. Find and fix problems dramatically faster
2. Automatically monitor to identify issues, problems and attacks
3. Gain end-to-end visibility to track and deliver on IT KPIs and make better-informed IT decisions
4. Gain real-time insight from operational data to make better-informed business decisions
