A step-by-step practical implementation tutorial that equips you with high-level knowledge of configuring, deploying, extending, and integrating Splunk to bring machine-generated operational intelligence (?)to your advantage. The book targets professionals and organizations who want to implement or have already implemented Splunk for log analysis and indexing. Analysts and IT staff for end-to-end investigation, performance monitoring, and so on will also learn from the practical examples.
