Other  Thoughts  

14  

 •  Leverage  the  Splunk  Common  InformaJon  Model  (CIM)  

Common  ‘language’  across  data  types    

•  Use  Knowledge  Objects  to  bridge  systems  to  services  lookups,  tags,  evennypes    

•  Make  alerts  more  acJonable  –  not  just  What  happened  Incorporate  recipient’s  ‘next’  quesJon  (ie  where,  who)

Final  Thoughts  

15  

 •  Understand  the  difference  between  Measurements  and  Metrics  

Metric  =  combinaJon  of  2  or  more  measurements    

•  Administer  Splunk  with  end  state  in  mind  •  What  are  your  use  cases?  •  What  pain  points  are  you  trying  to  address?  

•  Help  bridge  the  InformaJon  and  Knowledge  analyJc  gap  Ø  Key  step  in  leveraging  Splunk  toward  ‘Wisdom’  ends
