Splunk App for VMware

Prior to launching IT Essentials Work, Splunk has offered multiple Splunkbase apps to manage their IT infrastructure, and customers have had to maintain each of these apps individually. IT Essentials Work allows customers to monitor many types of different infrastructure types side by side, without having to switch between different apps. We highly recommend that customers either purchase IT Service Intelligence to holistically monitor virtualized environments or use the latest free version of IT Essentials Work 4.9 (available May 2021) for out of the box host level VMware infrastructure monitoring. For more details on this announcement and migration options, please contact your sales representative. The Splunk App for VMware provides deep operational visibility into granular performance metrics, logs, tasks and events and topology from hosts, virtual machines and virtual centers. It empowers administrators with an accurate real-time picture of the health of the environment, proactively identifying performance and capacity bottlenecks. The Splunk App for VMware version 4.0.4 is compatible with Splunk version 8.0. and above and VMware vSphere versions 6.5 and above. To provide the best experience for Splunk users who want to monitor their VMware infrastructure, Splunk is refocusing engineering efforts on our IT Essentials Work and IT Service Intelligence offerings. As a result, we will End Of Sale the Splunk App for VMware on April 30, 2021 and End of Life will be August 31, 2022.
