Integration with other tools

Splunk complements your existing monitoring and alerting tools, because of its ability to index any type of data from any source. You can also send data from alerting or monitoring software to Splunk. Much alert data is ephemeral -- the tool displays alerts but does not keep any record of them. If you want to go beyond troubleshooting to correlate and trend your fault information, or produce a report, you can keep a history of the alerts you receive and when. Having your alerting or monitoring data in Splunk is another way to get the big picture you need to go from reactive to proactive.
