Greetings Melbourne Splunkers!

Thank you ALL for making & taking the time to join us at our last user group - We had so much fun we're going to do it all again!

Join us on Thursday, May 7th, 2026 for the next exciting instalment of the "Splunk Melbourne User Group!". We're thrilled to share that we've got some amazing speakers lined up!

• Damian will share how the University of Melbourne uses Splunk to manage academic integrity & learning analytics for the academic community.

• Splunk Trust member Gareth from Telstra will drive a discussion around performance tuning and architectural decisions for Splunk environments.

• Splunk Principal Security Researcher Shannon will share his passion project "Security Sidekick", an AI-powered Incident Response assistant for security analysts that utilises Splunk, ServiceNow, document repos, and other connectors, to pull real evidence, then uses multiple models to reason over that evidence and produce structured findings.

Speaking of events, if you missed Splunk's regional user event SplunkGO in Sydney... GOOD NEWS!! You can view the recordings of the sessions here: https://www.brighttalk.com/series/8000

Cheers!

Your Splunk UG Team 🤘
