Meaning each app per environment will have a separate Index. Such that whichever app is misbehaving - it's index will be disabled. <BR /> There will be 400 such indexes on single Indexer - is there any kind of performance penalty of having so many Indexes on single Indexer. Indexer is a windows machine - 2 processors 2.40 GHz. <BR /> We can add more Indexers if required, but would need to understand capability on a single machine.</P> Thu, 05 Sep 2019 17:51:15 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Search/Index-count-on-a-single-Indexer/m-p/472933#M192346 rashi83 2019-09-05T17:51:15Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Search/Index-count-on-a-single-Indexer/m-p/472934#M192347 <P>Read this<BR /> <A href="https://answers.splunk.com/answers/307396/how-many-indexes-is-too-many-in-an-indexer-cluster.html">https://answers.splunk.com/answers/307396/how-many-indexes-is-too-many-in-an-indexer-cluster.html</A></P> Thu, 05 Sep 2019 18:10:58 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Search/Index-count-on-a-single-Indexer/m-p/472934#M192347 somesoni2 2019-09-05T18:10:58Z
