The Splunk Interface

This is the third edition of this book! Splunk has continued to grow in popularity since our original publication and each new release of the product proves to be enthusiastically consumed by the industry. The content of each chapter within this edition has been reviewed and updated for Splunk version 7.0, with new sections added to cover several new features now available in version 7.0. In addition, we have two new chapters, one covering Splunk's latest machine learning toolkit (MLT) and another discussing practical proven-practice recommendations. So, even if you have an earlier edition of this book (thank you!), it's worthwhile picking up this edition.

Let's begin!

This chapter will walk you through the most common elements in the Splunk interface, and will touch upon concepts that are covered in greater detail in later chapters. You may want to dive right into them, but an overview of the user interface elements might save you some frustration later. We will cover the following topics in this chapter:

  • Logging in and app selection
  • A detailed explanation of the search interface widgets
  • A quick overview of the admin interface
