Validation

Validation

  • Splunk Enterprise has been deployed and validated on PowerFlex rack with following design:

    • Four PowerFlex rack nodes
    • Distributed Clustered Deployment-single site (C1 /C11) topology 
    • 50 GB ingestion per day volume with 30-day hot/warm storage retention 
    • Five VMs have been created, each VM is installed with Splunk binaries and assigned one search head, two indexers, one forwarder, and one cluster master

    Optimized the design for both high performance and data retention capability using PowerFlex rack for storage of hot/warm and PowerScale is integrated to provide configurable cold data bucket retention

    For this validation, 50 GB of log data is generated and forwarded through a universal forwarder, the data gets indexed and the events are stored in the hot buckets, where the events can be searched using a search head. Once the warm bucket volume size exceeds the specified limit, the data is rolled back into the PowerScale cold bucket.
