Description

Cluster Admin Course: Short DescriptionThe Splunk Architect Cluster Admin course provides essential knowledge and skills for planning, configuring, and managing a scalable Splunk deployment. Participants will gain expertise in various aspects of Splunk architecture, including indexer cluster setup, command usage, multi-site deployments, forwarder management, and search head clustering concepts. This course empowers architects to design and implement robust Splunk deployments that meet enterprise-scale requirements.Agenda:Planning a Deployment:Understand the requirements and considerations for a successful Splunk deployment.Evaluate hardware, storage, network, and security requirements.Develop a deployment plan that aligns with our objectives.Setting up a Cluster:Configure and manage a Splunk Index cluster for high availability and fault tolerance.Understand the concepts of indexer clustering, replication factor, and search factor.Commands & Multi-Site Deployments:Master the CLI for advanced knowledge as it relates to clustering.Explore commands for deploying Splunk across multiple sites or regions.Handling the Cluster:Monitor and troubleshoot Splunk clusters to ensure optimal performance.Utilize cluster management tools and techniques for efficient administration.Understand best practices for capacity planning and scaling.Forwarder Management:Implement effective strategies for managing Splunk forwarders.Configure data inputs, outputs, and deployment strategies for forwarders.Notes on Search Head Clustering (SHC):Explore the architecture and benefits of search head clustering.Discuss search head clustering to distribute search workloads and enhance performance.By the end of the Splunk Architect course, participants will possess the knowledge and skills required to design, deploy, and maintain scalable Splunk deployments. They will be equipped to optimize performance, ensure data availability, and effectively manage a Splunk environment through hands-on exercises, practical examples, and real-world scenarios.
