Consolidate your IT Ops Infrastructure with Splunk IT Essentials Work
Author: Carl Parker
Release Date: 28/06/2021
In an effort to simplify their customers’ experience with infrastructure monitoring, Splunk have introduced the IT Essentials Work platform; a centralised app that can support the most common IT Operations use cases.
Without a bespoke solution for managing disparate apps within Splunk, the challenge of individually governing them for their IT infrastructure becomes apparent. With the integration of IT essentials work, you can utilise Splunk’s industry leading features more efficiently in one place. This provides IT departments with a much clearer picture of their network, and gives them greater context when attempting to identify any problems. It will also negate any worries surrounding scalability that organisations may have when leveraging a multitude of apps at any one time.

In line with this platform, and with a new push towards observability, Splunk brings comprehensive content packs to increase value and provide support. In particular, integrations with VMWare, *nix, Windows and Splunk Infrastructure Monitoring are fully supported in IT Essentials Work.
Splunk IT Essentials uses the same code base as Splunk’s leading ITOA solution, IT Service Intelligence (ITSI). This provides the crucial benefit of allowing organisations who might be looking to expand their ITOA capabilities to experience what ITSI can offer, before investing. Once more complex use cases have been developed, requiring the more advanced features of ITSI, the upgrade is managed through a simple license update.
Providing a straightforward data ingestion mechanism, an easy set-up experience, scalability and room to upgrade, customers can certainly benefit from utilising IT Essentials Work to monitor across different infrastructure types.
If your organisation is interested in exploring more advanced infrastructure monitoring techniques, and would like more information on ITEW or ITSI, please contact us and we can schedule a discovery session.
