Splunk is a software platform used for searching, monitoring, and analyzing machine-generated big data, such as logs and metrics from servers, applications, and network devices, via a web-style interface. IT operations teams, security analysts, and DevOps engineers use it for tasks like real-time monitoring, security information and event management (SIEM), troubleshooting, and business analytics dashboards. It indexes data from virtually any source and lets users run powerful search queries using its proprietary SPL (Search Processing Language).
