SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 18, 2011 /PRNewswire-Asia/ -- Splunk(
http://www.splunk.com ), the engine for machine
data, today announced that it has been awarded the Best Case Study
Presentation at TDWI's recent Big Data Analytics Solution Summit in
San Diego.
Splunk Chief Marketing Officer Steve Sommer and Vice President
of Engineering Stephen Sorkin delivered the presentation, which
examined deep analytics and emphasized that machine data is one of
the fastest growing, most complex and most valuable segments of big
data.
The summit delegates selected Splunk from nearly 20 vendors due
to the company's compelling examples of customers that grasp the
potential of big data and their ability to capitalize on the
opportunity. According to Richard Zbylut, President of TDWI, "As a
thought leader in the business intelligence space, TDWI is pleased
to recognize business intelligence technology companies like Splunk
that have developed innovative solutions their customers are
embracing and willing to share with others."
The presentation looked at how customers across several
industries including cloud/online services, education, media,
government and manufacturing are using Splunk to make machine data
accessible, usable and valuable to everyone. "Data is growing
exponentially, across virtually every organization," said Sommer.
"In our presentation, we explained how our customers are
monitoring, analyzing and reporting on machine data to derive
operational insights for both IT and the business. Many vendors are
focused on extending relational databases to address structured
data, but our founders realized that machine data requires a
fundamentally different type of solution." To read more about
