Splunk Brings Industrial IoT Data to Life with Splunk Industrial Asset Intelligence

Transform Industrial Operations with Real-Time Monitoring and
Predictive Analytics

SAN FRANCISCO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Splunk
Inc. (NASDAQ: SPLK), first in delivering “aha” moments from machine
data, today announced the limited availability of Splunk Industrial
Asset Intelligence (IAI), its first Internet of Things (IoT) solution.
Splunk® IAI helps organizations in manufacturing, oil and gas,
transportation, energy and utilities monitor and analyze industrial IoT
data in real time to create a simple view of complex industrial systems
while helping to minimize asset downtime.

Around the world, manufacturers are increasingly looking to their IoT
data to better monitor and diagnose operational issues and predict
maintenance needs. In fact, by 2025, more than a quarter of data created
in the global datasphere will be real time in nature, and real-time IoT
data will make up more than 95% of this1.

With this rapid increase in IoT data, industrial engineers and analysts
are often overwhelmed with the sheer volume of machine data that is
generated today by disparate industrial control systems and sensors.
Splunk IAI offers a packaged set of capabilities that helps customers
pivot their operational strategy from reactive to proactive.

“Real-time analytics is an absolute must for manufacturers today, but
organizations are struggling to bridge the gap between legacy systems,
industrial assets and sensor data,” said Ammar Maraqa, senior vice
president, business operations and strategy and general manager of IoT
Markets, Splunk. “Splunk IAI provides a single solution that helps
ensure industrial systems are running at full capacity, enabling
organizations to significantly save resources and money on unplanned
downtime.”

“For years, Splunk has provided their customers with valuable answers
from their IT and security machine data. Now, the massive growth of IoT
data has the industrial world demanding a solution that can help them
proactively take action on their data as well,” said Dr. Ulrich Bock,
director, rail and industry consulting, ESE GmbH. “As a Splunk partner,
we look forward to helping our customers turn IoT data into answers to
further fuel their business.”

Built on top of Splunk® Enterprise, Splunk IAI enables capture and
correlation of data from Industrial Control Systems (ICS), sensors,
SCADA systems and applications, making it easy to monitor and diagnose
equipment and operational issues in real time. This data-driven approach
to industrial operations enables customers to respond to issues faster
without affecting production, where unplanned downtime can equate to
millions of dollars in lost revenue.

“Working with Splunk Industrial Asset Intelligence has helped us
significantly reduce the time spent on troubleshooting equipment
issues,” said Ricardo Bicudo, vessel performance manager, Sapura
Navegacao Maritima. “This is a key factor for our company strengthening
our safety and operational standards.”

“The packaged set of capabilities provided by Splunk Industrial Asset
Intelligence easily integrates with our existing Splunk platform,” said
Erika Swartz, senior process engineer, fibers division, Shaw Industries.
“Access to real-time and predictive insights is critical for identifying
and diagnosing issues, as well as improving performance of our
manufacturing processes.”

A limited availability release of Splunk IAI will be introduced on April
23, 2018 at leading industrial conference Hannover
Messe, with general availability for all Splunk customers this fall.

Asset Intelligence, visit the Splunk
