"As more organizations and developers move their projects to the cloud, we want to be there with them," said Godfrey Sullivan, Chairman and CEO, Splunk. "Customers run Splunk Enterprise on premises and in clouds today, and now, Splunk Storm provides developers with an easy-to-use, subscription version of our software. Feedback during the public beta program has been extremely positive, with hundreds of active projects during the beta phase."
Splunk Storm runs as a fully managed, multi-tenant service on AWS and dynamically provisions all the resources needed to store and analyze data. Splunk Storm offers:
-- Monthly, pay-as-you-go pricing, payable by credit card
-- No installation or maintenance of hardware or software
-- The ability to scale storage up or down as needed, on demand, using a
simple slider
"We're excited that AWS customers can now quickly gain operational intelligence about their cloud applications using this innovative new offering," said Terry Wise, director of business development, Amazon Web Services. "Building Splunk Storm on the Amazon Web Services platform enables Splunk and its customers to benefit from the unique attributes of the cloud, including on-demand access, instant elasticity and the ability to pay only for what you use."
"With a fully managed, pay-as-you-go service, Splunk has extended its delivery model to the cloud to target a new generation of developers and organizations who require on-demand services," said Dennis Callaghan, senior analyst, enterprise software, 451 Research.
With the emergence of cloud computing, developers discovered a fast route to market for new, innovative applications. People developing and running applications in the cloud can now get the visibility and insights they are used to getting with Splunk software for applications running in their own environments.
"I love the ability of Splunk Storm to quickly and precisely extract information from my logs to generate content usage analytics and tracking for Newstex," said Chris Moyer, vice president of technology, Newstex LLC. Moyer is the author of "Building Applications in the Cloud" and was a Splunk Storm beta tester. "We needed a way to map what our logs said into meaningful segments. Splunk Storm helped us precisely extract the valuable information we needed and report on it."
"Splunk Storm is clearly one of the most powerful application analysis tools on the market today," said Ryan Pfeffer, co-founder, SendHub. "It has allowed us to go from half a day to 15 minutes of diagnosis and even faster implementation because we know exactly which points are failing and what parts we need to optimize."
