Splunk Search Processing Language (SPL) and Nobl9
Service Level Objectives
for Splunk
Splunk is a leading platform for log analytics, providing teams with the tools to search, analyze, and visualize logs in real time. It excels at transforming raw data into actionable insights by giving teams visibility into system performance and helping them troubleshoot issues across infrastructure and applications. Splunk helps teams understand what’s happening in their environment by processing and analyzing vast amounts of log data.
Here is how our integration with Splunk will add value to your observability strategy:
Strategic Alignment via SLOs: While Splunk helps teams interpret logs to understand system performance and identify issues, Nobl9 helps prioritize these insights based on business goals. Nobl9 creates Service Level Objectives (SLOs), which are not just data-driven but user-experience-driven, focusing on performance thresholds that directly impact customer satisfaction. Splunk provides data about everything that’s happening, but Nobl9 helps answer the critical question: What matters most for our users and business?
Proactive, Customer-Centric Approach: Splunk can alert teams to performance deviations, but Nobl9’s SLO framework focuses on user experience by setting explicit targets for what constitutes good service. Instead of alerting on every abnormality in logs, Nobl9 uses error budgets to track how much deviation is acceptable before users notice an impact. This minimizes noise and ensures that teams act only when user-facing reliability is at risk.
Focused and Prioritized Reliability Management: Splunk's powerful log analytics give a broad view of what's happening, but Nobl9 ensures that organizations aren't overwhelmed by the data. Nobl9’s reporting and dashboards provide a strategic view of service health that is directly tied to business priorities. Nobl9’s SLOs transform Splunk’s log data into reliability targets, ensuring teams focus on maintaining key aspects of the service that directly affect the user experience.
Error Budget Tracking: Splunk users may be monitoring multiple services and systems, but Nobl9’s error budget tracking helps prioritize efforts. Instead of firefighting every issue, teams can use error budgets to determine when they need to intervene, giving them a structured approach to reliability.
