The Need of Splunk in DevOps culture for NFT
Complex to visualize
The Machine generated data is a log which
comes from any computer Process/Application
during their execution(e.g. system event &
live application logs,
network feeds, message queues, etc.) which is
difficult to interpret
Efficient Performance
Summary
Generate a centralised dashboard from
the raw test results of Loadrunner,
Neoload, Jmeter tools etc. by pulling
data a from common test data
repository.
Oversee Business Metrics
Key Performance Indicator monitoring for
Business Critical Transactions and Business
Intelligence operational decision with Splunk
Alerting &
Email systems with CI/CD Model.
Enables real-time infra.
monitoring
Real-time monitoring of
Infrastructures/Operating systems from
Perfmon, Nmon, vmstat logs etc via Splunk
forwarder monitoring approach.
Keeps track of NFT Jobs
Performance build monitoring from Jenkins
and Visualize metrics in Splunk Dashboard

into Jenkins master and node infrastructure, job and
build details such as console logs, status, artefacts,
and an incredibly efficient way to analyze test
results
