During Cisco Live last June in Las Vegas, we had the opportunity to sit down with Tom Casey, SVP and General Manager at Splunk. We asked him all about how he thinks the portfolios from Splunk and Cisco work together, and reinforce each other. How does Splunk make Cisco better, and vice versa?
The acquisition of Splunk by Cisco was big news near the end of 2023. After closing the acquisition somewhere last March, the teams at both companies really got to work and already delivered some integrations.
Observability underpins a lot of what Cisco has done over the past few years. It has an impact on its security business, but also its networking business and obviously its AppDynamics business. Without observability, all the talk by Cisco about Digital Experience Assurance would not be possible, or at least a lot less confident.
Making sense of a crazy heterogeneous space
With the addition of Splunk to the fold, Cisco now has fundamentally different data to add to its Full Stack Observability approach. One of the key talking points of this episode of Techzine Talks on Tour is what this means, and what companies can get out of this. Tom Casey breaks down the essence of observability, detailing its critical layers. In addition, we talk about the necessity of a unified data platform that curtails alert overload while ensuring consistent insights across both traditional and modern cloud environments.
Listen to this episode if you want to gain a better understanding of how combining Cisco’s data to Splunk’s data can transform raw data into actionable intelligence. According to Casey, we need fundamentally better insights to deal with the "crazy mixed up heterogeneous space" that a company's infrastructure and insights have become.
The conversation isn't limited to observability, though. We also touch on how Splunk and Cisco can advance the state of the art in networking and security.
Listen to this new episode now. You won't be disappointed.
