Organizations face mounting cost pressures while data volumes continue to grow and logging options multiply. Siloed data and rigid infrastructure make things worse. Splunk’s answer? Federated Search.
In this talk, learn how Imply and Splunk work together to break down data silos, extend retention, and reduce costs—without sacrificing the speed and familiarity of the Splunk UI. See how Federated Search helps boost utilization and improve MTTD and MTTR.
Note: Imply is sponsoring the pizza at this usergroup meeting. Thanks Imply!
