Get Ready to Do More With Machine Data – Introducing Dell Ready Systems for Splunk

Manage machine data without all the machinations.

If you know machine data can help you drive operational performance and business results but don’t know how to get a handle on it, or if you’re intimidated by deploying infrastructure for the leading machine data analytics application, Dell makes it easy with new Ready Systems for Splunk.

Enterprises are using data generated by many different types of machines like infrastructure, security solutions and business applications to identify application failures, understand cyberattacks, investigate data breaches, and summarize authorized and unauthorized configurations—in real time. Machine data is the largest and fastest-growing section of big data, and if you’re not making it accessible and usable to your business, you’re definitely missing out.

Splunk has become a business critical application and having the right infrastructure is key to being successful with Splunk. Dell and Splunk have partnered to make adopting or expanding Splunk much simpler, by engineering a portfolio of purpose-built systems that leverage the automation of VMware® to create optimal infrastructure for Splunk.

Dell Ready Systems for Splunk are purpose-built for the needs of Splunk, helping consolidate, simplify and protect machine data while delivering high levels of performance and data retention.
