Splunk is a software tool for searching, monitoring and analysing machine generated data via web interface. It\u00a0indexes and correlates real-time and non-real-time big data to generate meaningful statistics and visualisations. It\u00a0is used for application management, security and compliance as well as business analytics.<\/p>\n
Splunk reads textual data through various methods to perform its indexing. Splunk can read and index any\u00a0form of textual data. Splunk reads data and divides the data into events based on the timestamps on the\u00a0data. If the real time data does not contain timestamp, Splunk puts the timestamp when the data is read or\u00a0puts a timestamp of the data saved in the file. Splunk however cannot read binary data. In case of binary\u00a0data, user needs to input a way to convert the binary data to textual information. This can be done by
\nrunning scripts along with splunk to convert the binary data.<\/p>\n
