The Observability Journey: Getty Images and Cribl

I recently sat down with Simon Overbey and Lovepreet Singh - the Engineering Manager and systems engineer (respectively) at Getty Images to talk about their experiences implementing Cribl. After getting a rundown of the pre-Cribl environment (described above) I asked to jump straight to the end, the net benefits. If the "before" was a terrifying tidal wave of cost and complexity, what did the "after" look like?

Federated Search | From Silos to Insight | Azure Blob Schema Discovery with Splunk's Crawler

This walk-through shows how Splunk's Cloud can discover schema and partition keys for Microsoft Azure Blob Storage datasets and create searchable Splunk managed tables. Once the data is mapped, analysts can use Splunk Federated Search to query Azure Blob data where it lives, bringing cloud-resident logs into security, observability, and operational work-flows without re-ingesting the data.

DataPrime at ingest (DPXL): See the impact of any routing decision

TCO policies have always been one of the most impactful cost levers in Coralogix. Route business-critical data to High, push monitoring data to Medium, archive compliance logs to Low. With the addition of DataPrime expressions (DPXL) – a subset of the DataPrime query language designed for inline filtering at ingest – that routing became even more precise, matching on any field in the event payload, not just application, subsystem, and severity.

Your telemetry, your apps: Inside the Cribl App Platform

You already use Cribl to tame your telemetry data. Now you can turn that data into apps your teams actually want to use. In this video, we walk through the Cribl app platform and show how real apps solve real problems: guided troubleshooting for noisy incidents, opinionated security views, and exec-friendly ROI dashboards. You’ll see how apps sit on top of Cribl Stream, Edge, Search, and Lake, so you reuse the data and logic you already have instead of building custom tools from scratch.

How to Install and Configure an OpenTelemetry Collector

Originally published June 2024. Updated May 2026. A lot has changed since the first version of this guide. In May 2026, OpenTelemetry officially graduated within the CNCF, the highest maturity level a project can achieve. All three core signals (metrics, logs, and traces) are now stable across every major language SDK. Collector adoption has never been higher, and the ecosystem around it, particularly OpAMP for remote management, has matured significantly. This update walks through three things.

Federated Search | From Silos to Insight | Splunk Cloud with Apache Iceberg REST and AWS S3

This walk-through shows how Splunk Cloud can search AWS S3 data through an Apache Iceberg REST catalog backed by Nessie. Learn how Iceberg table metadata, S3 storage, and Splunk Federated Search work together so analysts can query historical security data where it lives without reingesting it into Splunk.

Hybrid Cloud Monitoring Explained: On-Prem + Cloud + Kubernetes in One View

Understand what hybrid cloud monitoring is and why it’s critical for managing modern distributed IT environments. Hybrid cloud monitoring helps organizations unify visibility across on-prem infrastructure, public cloud platforms, virtual machines, containers, and Kubernetes clusters in a single monitoring platform. In this video, learn how fragmented monitoring tools create operational blind spots and slow down incident response across hybrid environments.
