Apart from converting all the machine data into Operational Intelligence, organizations can also bolster the IT operations and infrastructure to gain real-time visibility into the entire application stack.

With Operational Intelligence, enterprises get a real-time view of what is happening in their IT systems and technology infrastructure. It helps companies make the best-informed decisions and acquire valuable insights out of data.

Splunk IT Service Intelligence

Since its genesis, Splunk has assisted more than three-quarter of the Fortune 100 companies and has empowered thousands of enterprises, universities, government agencies, and service providers. With proven solutions from Splunk, enterprises have gained benefits of obtaining machine data for application management, IT operations, security, web intelligence, customer and business analytics, and more. The firm provides Splunk IT Service Intelligence (ITSI), a monitoring and analytics solution powered by AIOps, to improve the visibility into the health and key performance indicators (KPI) of critical IT and business operations. With this offering, Splunk’s clients can address a variety of IT challenges including deriving service-level insights and analysis on events and metrics. Splunk ITSI enables companies to aggregate data along with abating IT silos. Built on the Splunk Operational Intelligence platform, ITSI leverages search and correlation capabilities to assist companies in monitoring, collecting, and reporting from IT devices, systems, and applications. The solution uses machine learning algorithms to adapt to the thresholds in real-time and improve service operations, team productivity, and cross-functional collaboration of its clients.

An Exemplary to Address Problems at Hand

Since its genesis, the firm has assisted over 14,000 customers based in 110 countries to abate operations costs, improve service levels, mitigate security risks, enable compliance, enhance DevOps collaboration and create new products and service offerings. The firm’s extensive clients’ base includes some of the prominent market leaders including Zillow, Coca-Cola, Adobe, Atlassian, and AURIZON. In one of its successful projects, Splunk assisted Vodafone, to monitor all of their operations in real time. The challenge was that the telecom firm lagged visibility for monitoring the performance of its services that were getting rolled out every day by the projects teams, designers, and architects. With ITSI, the client was able to garner real-time insights to support, troubleshoot, and monitor services. Since deploying ITSI, the telecom giant attained many benefits such as promptly addressing the issues and improving its operational visibility. The solution, implemented in two days, enabled Vodafone to proactively resolve issues with the underlying data from various KPIs indexed in the Splunk platform. As the association empowered Vodafone to accelerate its service insights, the company intends to employ Splunk IT Service Intelligence into its other services as well.
