This blog demonstrates how to create “inputs” to Cribl Search dashboards. An Input is a control widget that we can add to our Dashboards to control how they execute. They allow the user to supply a range of inputs to customize one or many of the Searches in each of the panels on a given dashboard. Currently, there are four types of inputs: a time picker, a dropdown, a string, and a number. This blog shows how to create all four types of Inputs on a dashboard using built-in sample data.
Empty spaces, what are we searching for? Abandon queries, but do you know the score? On and on, Does anybody know what we are looking for? … Inspired by “The Show Must Go On”, Queen. Since we launched Cribl Search back in late 2022, we’ve been hard at work on adding features and functionality that continue to empower data engineers to do more with their data without needing to collect it first.
At Cribl, we give the people what they want. And what they want is to keep their data close to their sources and destinations. The less data has to travel, the better — lower latency and fewer security risks. This commitment to data locality is even more pronounced among our valued customers in the EMEA region, who are enthusiastically embracing cloud-first strategies.
Terry Mulligan, is a Splunk consultant with Discovered Intelligence (and Notre Dame’s biggest fan)— a data intelligence services and solutions provider that specializes in data observability and security platforms. He shares what Cribl has brought to the table for his organization and his clients, and how it’s changed their processes and the role of the Splunk data engineer.
In this conversation, Sanjay Shrestha, Principal Detection Engineer at Bayer, and Raanan Dagan, Principal Sales Engineer from Cribl, talk about the integration of Git in Cribl Stream. They discuss how to manage configuration files and pipelines as code, simplifying their deployment. They also share a demo and give best practices for optimizing your GitOps workflow. In the 10+ years that Bayer has worked with Splunk, they’ve gone from processing just 80 GB/day to more than 13 TB/day.
We continue our exploration of the fascinating world of Kubernetes, logs, and metrics. In our previous installment, we delved into the intricate tale of Cribl Edge and its role in unraveling the mysteries of logging and metrics in Kubernetes environments with the Cribl Edge native sources for Kubernetes Metrics and Logs. Today, we’re picking up where we left off, shining a spotlight on a new and powerful tool that has the potential to demystify this complex ecosystem further.
When Cribl Stream becomes the center of your data universe, your individual settings, routes, pipelines, and packs become a critical aspect of your work. What happens if you lose access to the UI? If you are on a licensed version of Cribl Stream backing up the work that you are in Sources, Destinations, Routes, Pipelines, and Packs would be done easily using the GitOps remote repo.
