Macnica Splunk Partner Journey 2024

Features of the seminar

Providing the latest information on new products and data utilization! An event for Splunk partner companies that lead the data market

Splunk is always at the forefront of providing cutting-edge data utilization solutions.

We will be holding a seminar to provide you with the latest information on this topic. This seminar will focus on the following three important themes:

  • Latest information on Edge Hub: A new product that supports a wide range of industry-standard protocols for OT data that is difficult to import, and enables easy information aggregation and analysis in Splunk. We will introduce the functions and how to use it in detail.
  • What are the key propositions of Observability Cloud?: We will introduce the differentiating points of Observability, which tends to be a price war, from a sales and technical perspective.
  • Introducing customer success activities to support log utilization: Do your customers have any concerns after introducing Splunk? We will introduce the efforts we have made to increase customer satisfaction and expand business, as well as the support we provide to our partners.

In this seminar, we will explore the possibilities of further data utilization and provide hints to further expand our partner business. Please join us.

Aggregating all Edge data! ~OT Visualization over the Edge Hub~

Splunk has finally entered the OT field!
The complexity of importing OT data has been a bottleneck in the past, but this solution supports a wide range of industry standard protocols, making it easy to share information with Splunk and aggregate it for analysis.
We will introduce how OT environment visualization can be achieved using a small, dustproof, explosion-proof housing equipped with internal sensors that collect various information such as temperature and humidity.

14:05~14:35
What are the key points to keep in mind when proposing Splunk Observability Cloud?

Observability is a topic that has been gaining attention in recent years, and I’m sure you’ve heard of it somewhere before.
However, when you look at observability products such as APM from various vendors, many of them have similar UIs and functions, making their points of differentiation unclear, and ultimately they tend to fall into the dilemma of competing on price.
However, in reality, differences in some product features and pricing structures may have a significant impact on customer operations.
In this session, we will introduce the points that differentiate Splunk from other products from both a sales and technical perspective, and discuss the key points to keep in mind when proposing Splunk.

★Recommended for those proposing Observability products and engineers who would like to see a demo screen.

14:35~15:05
Introducing customer success activities to support log utilization

After introducing Splunk to your customers, do you have any of the following concerns?

  • Import logs do not increase and license volume does not increase
  • Implemented Splunk, but little use since then
  • I want to do support activities, but I don't have enough resources.

Our company has faced this exact situation with our customers and has undertaken various initiatives to encourage users to utilize our services.
This time, we will provide an overview of this initiative and propose the support system provided by Macnica.

★Recommended for those who will propose to customers how to further utilize Splunk.

15:05~15:25
