Splunk Cloud

Splunk Migration.

Phased migration from Splunk Enterprise to Splunk Cloud, without losing data, searches or visibility.

The problem we solve.

Migrating to Splunk Cloud is a chance to clean up years of accumulated configuration, but it's also the moment of greatest risk: apps that fail validation, searches that depend on local paths, or forwarders still pointing at the old location.

What’s included.

  • Inventory of apps, searches and knowledge objects
  • Validation of app compatibility with Splunk Cloud
  • Migration plan by waves
  • Redirection of forwarders and sources
  • Coexistence and validation period before cutover

How we work.

Five phases, always in the same order. Select each one to see what happens in it. In full projects they map onto the stages of our method.

We review your platform, your data sources, your searches and your licence consumption to know where you stand.

We design the solution on Splunk Cloud Platform: indexes, retention, ingest paths, apps and access controls.

We migrate in waves: apps validated with AppInspect, knowledge objects, forwarders redirected and new sources connected.

We run both environments in parallel and compare search and alert results before each cutover.

We measure usage, performance and cost after go-live and adjust what isn't adding value.

Technical capabilities.

  • AppInspect
  • Admin Config Service
  • Universal and Heavy Forwarder
  • Deployment Server
  • Knowledge objects
  • Coexistence plan

Use cases.

End of self-managed infrastructure

Stop maintaining Splunk servers.

Pending upgrade

Move off old versions without a complex upgrade.

Consolidation

Unify several installations into a single cloud environment.

Benefits for your organisation.

  • Migration without loss of visibility
  • A clean platform from the start
  • Less infrastructure maintenance
  • Risk controlled through waves

Deliverables.

  • Inventory and compatibility analysis
  • Migration plan
  • Waves executed and validated
  • Final documentation

Frequently asked questions.

Do you migrate historical data too?

We decide based on retention and cost. Sometimes it makes sense to migrate the history, other times to leave it accessible in the old environment until it expires.

What happens to our own apps?

We validate them with AppInspect and fix what's needed for Splunk Cloud to accept them.

Will there be a service outage?

We plan a coexistence period so visibility isn't interrupted during the change.
