Real-time search, reports, and dashboards

This feature allows users to select from a new time range option called "Real-time" which enables searching forward in time (as opposed to historical searches). Users can then view, search and report on events before Splunk's indexing process therebye making data available immediately.

Users can apply traditional boolean search operators or any aspect of the search language (such as statistical reporting commands) to create customized real-time search 'streams' that push incoming data to the user. Additionally real-time streams support the ability to update transaction counts or calculate metrics in real-time on large incoming data flows. Users can then combine multiple real-time searches and reports on a dashboard that can be shared with others.

This new feature can be accessed from the command-line or Splunk Web.
