Splunk is the platform for a million use cases, used to investigate operational data across security, observability, fraud, business intelligence and many other domains. But, in my time at Splunk, I’ve come to realize that all of our customers face challenges that stem from the same core problem: Within exploding data volumes, finding the anomalously behaving entities that are most threatening to the resilience of their organization.

Artificial intelligence (AI) has emerged as a transformative force, empowering businesses and software engineers to scale and push the boundaries of what was once thought impossible. However as AI is accepted in more professional spaces, the complexity of managing AI systems seems to grow. Monitoring AI usage has become a critical practice for organizations to ensure optimal performance, resource efficiency, and provide a seamless user experience.

In the face of an ever-evolving cybersecurity landscape, Splunk never rests. Today, we're ecstatic to share the release of Splunk User Behavior Analytics (UBA) 5.3, delivering power and precision in one package, and pushing the boundaries of what's possible in user and entity behavior analytics.

In the world of observability, having the right amount of data is key. For years Apica has led the way, utilizing synthetic monitoring to evaluate the performance of critical transactions and customer flows, ensuring businesses have important insight and lead time regarding potential issues.

Application performance monitoring (APM) is much more than capturing and tracking errors and stack traces. Today’s cloud-based businesses deploy applications across various regions and even cloud providers. So, harnessing the power of metadata provided by the Elastic APM agents becomes more critical. Leveraging the metadata, including crucial information like cloud region, provider, and machine type, allows us to track costs across the application stack.

To maximize the performance and value of your software apps, networks and systems, it’s critical to eliminate performance bottlenecks. Performance testing has become critical in every organization to reveal and fix performance bottlenecks, ensuring the best experience to end users. This article explains what performance testing is, its importance, and the various types of performance testing.

Cloud analytics is the process of storing and analyzing data in the cloud and using it to extract actionable business insights. Simply one shade of data analytics, cloud analytics algorithms are applied to large data collections to identify patterns, predict future outcomes and produce other information useful to business decision-makers.

In today's market, companies undergoing digital transformation require secure and reliable systems to meet customer demands, handle macroeconomic uncertainty and navigate new disruptions. Digital resilience is key to providing an uninterrupted customer experience and adapting to new operating models. Companies that prioritize digital resilience can proactively prevent major issues, absorb shocks to digital systems and accelerate transformations.
