Splunk provides innovative software solutions that ingest data from different sources including systems, devices and interactions, and turn that data into meaningful business insights across the organization. Our Data-to-Everything platform enables users to investigate, monitor, analyze and act on data regardless of format or source. Data is produced by nearly every software application and electronic device across an organization and contains a real-time record of various activities, such as business transactions, customer and user behavior, and security threats. Beyond an organization's traditional information technology ("IT") and security infrastructure, data from the Industrial Internet, including industrial control systems, sensors, supervisory control and data acquisition ("SCADA") systems, networks, manufacturing systems, smart meters and the Internet of Things ("IoT"), which includes consumer-oriented systems, such as electronic wearables, mobile devices, automobiles and medical devices are also continuously generating data. Our Data-to-Everything platform helps organizations gain the value contained in data by delivering real-time information to enable operational decision making. Our mission is to make data accessible, usable and valuable to everyone in an organization. Our customers leverage our offerings for various use cases, including infrastructure and operations management, security and compliance, software development and IT operations, applications management and business analytics, and to provide insights into data generated by IoT and industrial data, among many others. Our offerings are intended to help users in various roles, including IT, security, application development, manufacturing and business professionals, quickly analyze their data and achieve real-time visibility into and intelligence about their organization's operations. We believe this enables organizations to improve service levels, reduce operational costs, mitigate security risks, demonstrate and maintain compliance, drive better business decisions, and increase efficiency through data-driven automation. This results in greater efficiency, security and competitive advantage for our customers. Splunk Enterprise Our flagship product is Splunk Enterprise, a real-time data platform, comprised of collection, indexing, search, reporting, analysis, alerting, monitoring and data management capabilities. Splunk Enterprise can collect and index petabytes of data daily, irrespective of format or source. Our data platform uses our patented data processing architecture that performs dynamic schema creation at read time, rather than write time, enabling users to run queries on data without having to define or understand the structure of the data prior to collection and indexing. This is in contrast to traditional IT systems that require users to establish the format of their data prior to collection in order to answer a pre-set list of questions. Splunk Enterprise also enables customers to interactively explore, analyze and visualize data stored in data sources such as Hadoop and Amazon S3. Our technology delivers speed, scalability and advanced analytics including machine learning when processing massive amounts of data for anomaly detection, event grouping, prediction and other methods. Our software leverages improvements in the cost and performance of commodity computing and can be deployed in a wide variety of computing environments, from a single laptop to large globally distributed data centers, as well as public, private and hybrid cloud environments.
