This is hopefully the first in a series of posts dealing with the joys of developing dashboards and apps in Splunk. In this post, I’d like to highlight different development options and introduce SideView Utils.
The Case for Dashboards
Organizations use Splunk in a variety of ways. Uses range from monitoring a specific application to gaining enterprise-wide insight into their operations. Insight can be gained on a...

I recently had the opportunity to take a close look at using spreadsheets and more specifically Excel as a key component of a business process.

And in updating with the times and all things going to the intertubes, the need now was to seek out a component that could comparably swap out Excel on the client side and bolt...
A use case can be formally defined as a list of steps defining interactions between a role and a system, to achieve a goal. However, if you haven’t written one yourself, you have at least heard the term somewhere. But exactly how useful are they when developing a product or defining a system process? Without having the proper understanding of use cases and the purpose of writing one, writing an effective case to elicit functional requirements can be pretty…useless.
Use cases can mainly be viewed as writing a story, so there is no real standardized format for writing them, making it...
Recently we found a client's aging Publisher deployment started becoming forgetful. Well maybe not so much forgetful, but exhibiting the advanced symptoms of dementia! We were finding that free memory in their deployment was consistently finding itself hovering at about 1% of total memory. This fact lead us to continually bump up the maximum memory setting for the JVM running publisher as band-aid type solution to this mystery. This went on for a while until finally we were pegged at the maximum we could allocate, 1.5Gb and still we found ourselves at 1% free memory. In an attempt to get a...
