Course Content
This course is for experienced on-prem administrators and anyone needing to ramp-up on Splunk Cloud to get more knowledge and experience of managing Splunk Cloud instances.
The course discusses the differentiators between on-prem Splunk and the different Splunk Cloud offerings. Modules include topics on how to migrate data collection and ingest from on-prem Splunk to Splunk Cloud as well as highlighting Splunk Cloud specific differences and best practices to manage a productive Splunk SaaS deployment. For Splunk Administrators who have undertaken the System and Data Administration learning pathways, this course highlights key differences between Splunk Enterprise deployed on-premises and Splunk Enterprise Cloud to allow them to ramp up their data and system management skills to transition to Splunk Cloud. The hands-on lab provides access to and experience of managing a Splunk Cloud instance.
Note: Splunk Cloud Administration and Transitioning to Splunk Cloud SHOULD NOT be taken together as both are designed to develop Splunk Cloud-specific skills and as such there is some overlap.
Please note that this course may run over two days, with 4.5 hour sessions each day.
