“The way people work and the way they expect to work has rapidly changed because of mobile and augmented reality technologies, which organizations should be adopting in order to stay competitive now and in the future,” said Tim Tully, CTO, Splunk. “Our vision is to give people access to data with the power of Splunk through these key technologies, whenever and wherever they need it. Our latest innovations, built on Splunk’s powerful platform, open up investigative capabilities by simplifying access to data, empowering every user to work smarter and helping them deliver business value for their organization.”
With Splunk Connected Experiences, Splunk makes information accessible to non-technical users, helping bring the power of data to their work. These users can now access Splunk dashboards through AR, mobile applications and devices at anytime, empowering them to investigate and act on business challenges more easily and with greater confidence.
Splunk Connected Experiences is now generally available and includes:
- Splunk Cloud Gateway provides a secure cloud service with end-to-end encryption that allows for easy mobile engagement by installing Splunk Enterprise app for Mobile on Splunkbase.
- Splunk Mobile provides core Splunk Enterprise users with actionable alerts and mobile-friendly dashboards on their mobile devices through our Splunk Mobile App. Alerts will provide users with the option to take an action directly versus having to log into another system. Dashboards will be embedded in related alerts and easier to see on mobile devices including access to dashboards via Apple Watch. The Splunk Mobile App for iPhone and Apple Watch is free to download through the App Store.
- Splunk TV is a native Apple TV app that allows customers to securely view Splunk dashboards on any peripheral device instead of dedicated PCs for a better viewing experience. The Splunk TV app is only available from the App Store on Apple TV.
- Splunk Augmented Reality (AR) provides direct access to the Splunk dashboard by simply scanning a QR code or NFC tag that is pasted to a specific server rack, or any real-world object, with a mobile device. Splunk AR is available through the Splunk Mobile App, and can be used in multiple environments, whether it’s IT and server logs or equipment health data that could affect plant downtime. The Splunk AR App for iPhone and iPad is free to download through the App Store.
Created for business operations professionals who are responsible for overseeing business processes and ensuring positive customer experiences, Splunk Business Flow provides an easy-to-use process mining solution to quickly discover bottlenecks that threaten business performance, while helping to identify opportunities for improvement.
Built on the Splunk platform, Business Flow enables users to:
- Correlate data from multiple data systems without delays from manual data integration or analysis.
- Visualize actual end-to-end business processes–and explore variances and issues–with an easy-to-use, patent-pending interface.
- Investigate the potential root causes behind business process issues to quickly improve efficiencies.
Splunk further expanded its Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning capabilities to deliver a modern IT Operations suite that includes infrastructure monitoring, service monitoring, automation, AIOps and incident response. This modern suite simplifies IT operations from one data platform, and enables both infrastructure and operations teams get more context around an incident, resolve it faster, and get time back to focus on what matters. Splunk’s new monitoring suite for modern IT Ops includes new versions of Splunk IT Service Intelligence 4.2, Splunk App for Infrastructure 1.3 (which is now included with Splunk ITSI), and integrations with Splunk VictorOps and Splunk Phantom. Now generally available, this release delivers deeper integrations, more seamless workflows, and more powerful capabilities, including predictive analytics, service intelligence, event management, operations automation, and IT infrastructure monitoring all on one industry-recognized platform for AIOps.

In live financial environments, capital markets software cannot pause for rebuilds. New capabilities are introduced as stacked technology layers to meet evolving demands while systems remain active, data keeps moving, and controls stay intact. AI is no exception, and its opportunities are significant: accelerated decision cycles, compressed manual workflows, and more effective operations across complex environments. The constraint isn't the models themselves, but the architectural environments they enter ...
Like most digital transformation shifts, organizations often prioritize productivity and leave security and observability to keep pace. This usually translates to both the mass implementation of new technology and fragmented monitoring and observability (M&O) tooling. In the era of AI and varied cloud architecture, a disparate observability function can be dangerous. IT teams will lack a complete picture of their IT environment, making it harder to diagnose issues while slowing down mean time to resolve (MTTR). In fact, according to recent data from the SolarWinds State of Monitoring & Observability Report, 77% of IT personnel said the lack of visibility across their on-prem and cloud architecture was an issue ...

Technology management is evolving, and in turn, so is the scope of FinOps. The FinOps Foundation recently updated their mission statement from "advancing the people who manage the value of cloud" to "advancing the people who manage the value of technology." This seemingly small change solidifies a larger evolution: FinOps practitioners have organically expanded to be focused on more than just cloud cost optimization. Today, FinOps teams are largely — and quickly — expanding their job descriptions, evolving into a critical function for managing the full value of technology ...
Enterprises are under pressure to scale AI quickly. Yet despite considerable investment, adoption continues to stall. One of the most overlooked reasons is vendor sprawl ... In reality, no organization deliberately sets out to create sprawling vendor ecosystems.

Nearly every conversation about AI eventually circles back to compute. GPUs dominate the headlines while cloud platforms compete for workloads and model benchmarks drive investment decisions. But underneath that noise, a quieter infrastructure challenge is taking shape. The real bottleneck in enterprise AI is not processing power, it is the ability to store, manage and retrieve the relentless volumes of data that AI systems generate, consume and multiply ...

The observability industry has an evolving relationship with AI. We're not skeptics, but it's clear that trust in AI must be earned ... In Grafana Labs' annual Observability Survey, 92% said they see real value in AI surfacing anomalies before they cause downtime. Another 91% endorsed AI for forecasting and root cause analysis. So while the demand is there, customers need it to be trustworthy, as the survey also found that the practitioners most enthusiastic about AI are also the most insistent on explainability ...
In the modern enterprise, the conversation around AI has moved past skepticism toward a stage of active adoption. According to our 2026 State of IT Trends Report: The Human Side of Autonomous AI, nearly 90% of IT professionals view AI as a net positive, and this optimism is well-founded. We are seeing agentic AI move beyond simple automation to actively streamlining complex data insights and eliminating the manual toil that has long hindered innovation. However, as we integrate these autonomous agents into our ecosystems, the fundamental DNA of the IT role is evolving ...
