Use Cases

Perpetual Licenses

Switching from a perpetual ingest-based license to a new subscription license can be challenging, often involving a significant cost increase. Many clients choose a new subscription license to utilize Splunk® without the management hassle. Fortunately, with spectakl Lens, you can retain your perpetual license and still enjoy all the similar benefits: platform best practices, OS management, automated upgrades, and Splunk® security hardening. Focus on maximizing your use of Splunk® while we handle everything else.

Maximize Features, Optimize Costs with Existing Licenses

If you already have an on-premise ingest-based license and wish to maintain those cost savings without the burden of management, spectakl Lens is your solution.

Staging/Test Environment

Avoid testing code changes or upgrades in your production Splunk® environment—use spectakl Lens as your reliable test environment. Should anything go awry, you can rebuild the entire environment with just a click (and a confirmation).

Development Environment

Are you a Splunk® developer in need of a consistent, production-like stack for building and testing your apps? Explore our Sandbox plan.

Learning/Mastering Splunk®

If you're eager to build dashboards and onboard data but aren't ready to architect and secure the entire stack, our Sandbox plan is perfect for honing your SPL® and regex skills.
