Splunk is a Web-based tool for IT administrators who need to search and navigate IT data from applications, servers, and network devices in real time. The tool allows you to log, configure systems, run scripts, search code, and much more. The developer claims that if your machine can generate it then 'Splunk can eat it'. Splunk is a handy monitoring tool that can alert you to changes in scripts, configurations, capture files, and even connect to network ports. You can be sent notifications by RSS, email and SNMP. While the indexing, searching and reporting aspects of Splunk are impressive, the presentation is also excellent. It feels like a Google-style analytical tool, offering clear and easy to read reports, and a fairly easy setup procedure. However, anyone trying to use this on a small network with little IT administration knowledge will find it tricky. It's definitely aimed at advanced network administrators. Splunk is a fully comprehensive monitoring, alert and reporting app that will appeal to experienced administrators working on large networks.
