- Automatic Discovery Workshops
- Scenarios
Learn how to build observability solutions with Splunk
- Optimize Cloud Monitoring
This scenario is for ITOps teams managing a hybrid infrastructure that need to troubleshoot cloud-native performance issues, by correlating real-time metrics with logs to troubleshoot faster, improve MTTD/MTTR, and optimize costs.
- Debug Problems in Microservices
This scenario helps engineering teams identify and fix issues caused by planned and unplanned changes to their microservices-based applications.
- Optimize End User Experiences
Use Splunk Real User Monitoring (RUM) and Synthetics to get insight into end user experience, and proactively test scenarios to improve that experience.
- Self-Service Observability
This scenario helps platform engineering (or central tools) teams enable engineers with self-service observability tooling at scale, so developers and SREs can spend less time managing their toolchain and more time building and delivering cool software.
