We performed a comparison between AWS Auto Scaling and Splunk Enterprise Security based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Datadog, Dynatrace, New Relic and others in Application Performance Monitoring (APM) and Observability."The health check integration feature ensures that the instances are healthy and capable of absorbing traffic, thus serving their purpose effectively."
"It efficiently handles traffic, ensuring we are not running expenses and the infrastructure is strong enough to handle the load."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to select a minimum amount of active servers so that a new server automatically launches if one fails."
"AWS Auto Scaling is cost-effective and very useful for businesses."
"The solution's monitoring effectively monitors our application and CPU utilization."
"I like the graphs provided by the tool."
"The product provides self-healing features."
"It is a stable platform."
"The ability to ingest any data and display it in a way that anyone can understand."
"It provides a lot of analytics with the underlying AI engine, and it is a lot easier than other solutions. There are some products that do automated AI-based detection and drawing up charts, but for network monitoring and all of the monitoring aspects, it is quite a nice tool. It is very convenient for business users because they get more or less a lot of data readily available. If you're familiar with the Splunk query language, you can pretty much do whatever you want."
"The stock analysts and security people use one single dashboard (one single location) to check our logs."
"It helps us uncover bottlenecks in the network."
"Splunk can extract all kinds of data. There's no limitation on what kind of structured and unstructured data one needs to extract — it can access any kind of data, including machine-generated data."
"You can use it to gather syslog messages from anything."
"The ability to view all of these different logs, then drilling down into specific times or into specific data sources, has proved to be the greatest aspect in decreasing our troubleshooting overhead time."
"It has a rapid response search environment in the event of an incident."
"The product could add more features for managing instances."
"In comparison to other public clouds, the product is costly."
"Flexibility in configuring the workload is missing in AWS Auto Scaling."
"The solution's infrastructure scalability and elasticity could be improved."
"We can have more auto scaling algorithms implemented in AWS Auto Scaling."
"The solution is not out-of-the-box and you have to study to use it. It should be more easier to use."
"The speed of the solution must be improved."
"The only area of improvement is the speed at which servers are launched. When cleaning up to six servers at a time, it can take up to 15 to 20 minutes to launch new servers."
"I'd like to see more integration with more antivirus systems."
"Missing capability for audio/video and image processing."
"It's difficult to set up initially, and their billing model is also a bit complicated."
"Some of the queries are difficult to run and have room for improvement."
"The product was difficult to back up the first time."
"While scheduled reports can be embedded, Splunk dashboard can not be embedded directly without enabling cross origin."
"The monitoring aspect of Splunk could be improved. We have to do some queries to get as much information as CrowdStrike or other solutions provide. If you run a big query, you will see a delay. That is the only concern we have because it will take some time if you query large data sets."
"The CIM model is the method Splunk uses to normalize data and categorize its important parts, but it is quite complex."
