New platform team
Prepare whoever will administer Splunk.
Splunk Administration Training.
Training for Splunk administrators: data, indexes, users, apps and day-to-day operation.
The problem we solve.
Administering Splunk requires understanding how data comes in, is processed and is stored. Without that foundation, every platform incident turns into a lengthy investigation.
What’s included.
- Architecture and components
- Data onboarding and parsing
- Indexes, retention and storage
- Users, roles and authentication
- Diagnostics and maintenance
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 assess the group's starting level and what they need to be able to do by the end.
We design the programme: syllabus, exercises, practice environment and schedule.
We deliver the sessions with labs on data onboarding, indexes, roles and troubleshooting.
Each participant resolves administration issues set up in the lab.
We gather feedback and results and refine the programme for future editions.
