Inc., provider of the leading software platform for

the worldwide IT Operations Analytics (ITOA) software market share
leader for 2014 in a new report by IDC, a leading provider of global IT

According to the IDC report: “The company achieved rapid growth driven
by expansion in log management and analysis capabilities delivered via
its software and cloud service. The number of data sources and use cases
continued to expand along with increases in customer data volumes,
driving increased adoption. Splunk has invested in solutions for Hadoop,
mobile, real-time wire, security and cloud, among other data sources.”
Additionally, “Splunk supports pre-packaged content and visualization
for a variety of analytics use cases including IT operations, APM,
mobile and IoT. This is making Splunk-based analytics available to an
increasing variety of IT and business users.”

accelerating our ITOA leadership with the introduction of our newest
solution — Splunk IT Service Intelligence,” said Rick Fitz, senior vice
