About the Splunk Add-on for Amazon Kinesis Firehose

Splunk Add-on for Amazon Kinesis Firehose provides CIM-compatible knowledge for data collected through the HTTP event collector (HEC). After the Splunk platform indexes the events, you can analyze the data directly or use other Splunk apps, such as the Splunk App for AWS and Splunk Enterprise Security.
