I’ve been contributing to, and creating, Splunk apps for the better part of the last 10 years. But never have I felt more excited to be a Splunk Developer than right now. One of the primary reasons why I am so excited is because of build tools like @splunk/create. At Splunk, we recognize that developers are so crucial to our entire ecosystem.

Splunk TV lets you easily display your data on the big screen to visualize and monitor what’s going on in your business. Splunk TV is optimized for a hands-off experience, with slideshows and automatic scrolling so you can display the most important metrics securely and easily. We’re happy to announce that in addition to Classic (Simple XML) dashboards, we now support Studio Dashboards and IT Service Intelligence Glass Tables.

Just like that, another year has gone by full of remote work, virtual conferences, and lengthy Zoom calls. And, although we were not able to see our fellow Splunkers in person at.conf21 that didn’t stop us from previewing the latest enhancements to Splunk Enterprise Security. And now, it gives us great pleasure to announce that Enterprise Security 7.0 is available!

We are excited to announce that Splunk Log Observer Connect for Splunk Enterprise, previewed at.conf21, is now generally available! Log Observer Connect is a new feature that lets observability users explore the data already being sent to existing Splunk instances with Splunk Log Observer’s intuitive no-code interface for faster troubleshooting and root-cause analysis.

The last couple years have set new global benchmarks for the data and technology sector, putting companies that have considerably accelerated their digitisation processes in the front row. Our relationship with technology also changed immensely. One that has created new expectations by and for all stakeholders – from consumers to enterprise technology companies and governments.

If you’re like most organizations, you’re leveraging Jenkins for all sorts of things. Deployment pipelines, automated API tests, even glorified CRON jobs just to name a few.

In 2021, Splunk AR is better than ever. We’ve launched many features in both the Splunk AR mobile app and the Splunk App for AR web app. In this blog post, we’ll talk about these updates and go in detail about the exciting features in Splunk AR 4.0 and Splunk App for AR 2.0.

During.conf21, we announced the public release of the Splunk UI Toolkit, a collection of packages and libraries that provides some of the same underlying tools powering our product line to you, the Splunk developer. Now, any Splunk developer can incorporate Splunk UI components into their own custom applications and tools. This includes everything from buttons and inputs from our @splunk/react-ui package, or our new parallel coordinates visualization from our @splunk/visualizations package.
