Rising bill
Contain ingest cost without losing visibility.
Splunk Optimisation.
Less useless data, faster searches and a platform that handles growth without growing the bill.
The problem we solve.
Over time you end up with scheduled searches that get skipped, accelerations nobody uses, and sources that are indexed but never queried. The platform gets slower and costs more every year.
What’s included.
- Analysis of ingest and search consumption
- Review of scheduled searches and skipped searches
- Tuning of data model acceleration
- Filtering and routing of low-value data
- Retention plan by index
How we work.
Five phases, always in the same order. Select each one to see what happens in it. In full projects they map onto the stages of our method.
We review your platform, your data sources, your searches and your licence consumption to know where you stand.
We design the solution on Splunk Cloud Platform: indexes, retention, ingest paths, apps and access controls.
We apply the prioritised changes: scheduled searches, acceleration, data filtering and retention, always in a reversible way.
We measure consumption, skipped searches and response times before and after each change.
We measure usage, performance and cost after go-live and adjust what isn't adding value.

Frequently asked questions.
Does reducing ingest mean losing visibility?
Not if it's done right. We start with what nobody queries: DEBUG in production, duplicates, unused fields.
How much can be reduced?
It depends on each environment. We measure it in the assessment with your real data before promising anything.
Do you touch production configuration?
Only with your approval, and every change is documented and reversible.
