How to configure Splunk on Windows to consume logs from Cisco-managed S3 bucket ?

damode — Thu, 14 Mar 2019 23:21:02 GMT

As the title suggests, I am looking to configure Splunk on Windows platform to consume logs from Cisco-managed S3 bucket ?
There are already instructions to configure Splunk on Linux, but wondering if there is a similar solution for Splunk on Windows ?

I'm going to start off by saying Splunk on windows comes with some big drawbacks.
If this project is important to your business, you should have a read of this post:
https://answers.splunk.com/answers/516059/what-are-the-pain-points-with-deploying-your-splun.html
After you have read that, you should consider petitioning for linux servers to run Splunk components on!

Having said that, The Splunk AWS Add-on is supported on any platform supported by Splunk Enterprise, so you should be able to install both the App and the Add-On in windows in exactly the same way as Linux

What do you mean "Cisco managed S3"?

Hey damode,

Did you end up figuring this out? I unfortunately have found myself in the exact same scenario.

I know it won't be a poetry writing but you can still try and ask the writing experts about it.
