“Our customer base is experiencing explosive data growth and needs Splunk to help them tap into the value of all of their machine data,” said Godfrey Sullivan, Chairman and CEO, Splunk. “Splunk has always embraced simple pricing to help fuel our customers’ success, and we have been focused on continually driving down the cost of collecting, indexing and analyzing data in Splunk software. This new licensing model further removes barriers and encourages organizations to gain insights from all of their machine-generated big data by standardizing on Splunk Enterprise.”
An unlimited EAA enables organizations to deliver the most value from their machine data by utilizing Splunk Enterprise as a platform for machine data for the entire business and across diverse, high-value use cases such as IT operations, application delivery, security, business analytics and the Internet of Things. The unlimited EAAs also include support, education and professional services to help customers realize the maximum value from their Splunk investment. The unlimited EAA is Splunk’s latest move to make it easier for organizations to take advantage of their machine data. Last year, Splunk doubled license capacity at entry levels of Splunk Enterprise and also reduced the cost of Splunk Cloud by 33 percent.
