I have had a keen interest in Splunk for over 2 years and have seen the product grown and evolve from 4.2 to the current release of 6.2. Coming from the IT/Legal Compliance background, I have found the product at times challenging (learning regular expressions... anyone?). When Splunk Operational Intelligence came out for pre-order, it quickly caught my eye and was quick to add it to my wish list.This latest publication has been a real blessing. It includes the latest features within Splunk, like pivot tables and includes steps on how to build your own applications. So far I have found the book very helpful. I like how the information is arranged and how the how-to steps are presented in a very visual format. The author's use of examples are also very helpful and very easy to implement in any environment. To be fair I am only halfway through this book. But will post an update when I have completed it.My recommendation is that if you are new to Splunk, then get this book. It will help you get up to speed on the product and can help you navigate the extensive material provided by Splunk. If you are an experienced Splunker, some of the book's contents maybe redundant, but even so a walk through on some of the new features cant hurt. I've found a few useful nuggets of information as I worked through the book. I hope this review helps. Go get the latest version from splunk.com, get this book and get splunking!Disclaimer, I was fortunate enough to receive a electronic copy of this book by the publisher. My review was independent of this as I was about to order to the ebook this week. That said, I'll probably will buy the hard back copy because I have found it to be really helpful. I hope the author continues to provided revised editions as the product continues to evolve and perhaps develop a book more geared for Splunk deployments, the clustering of Indexers and SplunkWeb servers and walking the reader on setting up SSO Proxy servers using IIS and Apache.
