- Customers can leverage HPE Ezmeral and Splunk together to
create a single data store, available as a fully managed as a
service solution from HPE GreenLake
- Splunk joins HPE Ezmeral Marketplace as an integrated HPE
Ezmeral Container Platform solution
Hewlett Packard Enterprise (NYSE: HPE) today announced it is
certified for the Splunk® Operator for Kubernetes, which allows
users to easily deploy and manage Splunk Enterprise in a Kubernetes
infrastructure. The HPE Ezmeral Container Platform works with
Splunk to make it simple for customers to collect, analyze, and act
upon the untapped value of big data generated by their technology
infrastructure, security systems, and business applications,
delivering the insights to drive operational performance and
business results. Together, HPE and Splunk create a single
datastore that leverages open-source Kubernetes and S3, and is
available as a fully managed as a service solution from HPE
GreenLake.
The exponential data growth from increased infrastructure,
application, compliance requirements, and network traffic have
outpaced the ability for many organizations to effectively collect
and leverage data to detect, alert, and prevent security threats.
This data growth means that data centers are nearing maximum
capacity as IT support teams struggle to scale out ingestion,
processing, storage, and analysis of data. Combined with a lack of
experience with Kubernetes, this often results in the
underutilization of large systems. The increased infrastructure,
coupled with the growing backlog of data and lack of security
insights, is creating a need amongst organizations to find
innovative ways to optimize their delivery and consumption of
Splunk analytics to minimize blind spots in IT security.
The HPE Ezmeral Container Platform, the industry’s first
enterprise-grade container software platform, can handle both
cloud-native and non-cloud-native applications, combining bare
metal servers with integrated persistent storage to deliver scale,
performance, availability, and reliability. Combined with HPE
GreenLake, the HPE Ezmeral Container Platform helps customers
tackle some of their biggest challenges, including the security
issues generated by exponential data growth, like data blind spots
that can lead to security exposures.
A large financial institution recently turned to HPE and Splunk
to solve the blind spot problem, which is paramount for security,
but requires application, architecture, and consumption model
modernization. Individually these changes can be risky, but
combined are a daunting task. This is why HPE and Splunk
collaborated to solve the ingest problem with a unique
platform-as-a-service solution. It allows organizations to leverage
critical data to get a full view of the IT security landscape and
get more value from existing Splunk investments with efficient,
right-sized deployments.
HPE and Splunk partnered to leverage the power of the HPE
Ezmeral Container Platform, and open-source Kubernetes to bring
agility and scale to the new containerized Splunk operator. This
solution is available via the HPE GreenLake pay-per-use model that
can easily scale up or down and is fully managed by HPE. Splunk has
also joined the HPE Ezmeral Marketplace, which brings the top ISVs
and open-source projects to enterprises looking to modernize their
workloads to be cloud-native.
“Large enterprises are seeing the value in how HPE delivers
on-premises cloud experiences that deliver agility, speed, and cost
savings as well as governance and control,” said Anant
Chintamaneni, VP and GM, HPE Ezmeral. “HPE Ezmeral provides a
purpose built platform that uniquely brings together Kubernetes,
container native persistent storage, and policy management for
modern data-intensive applications. For example, working with HPE
and Splunk, customers are democratizing enormous amounts of machine
and telemetry data by creating a unified Splunk data repository to
accelerate time to insights.”
