License usage estimation integrating Splunk with Red Hat OpenShift using the new Splunk Connect for Kubernetes

Hello All,

I know this is a very generic questions, but is there anybody that can provide an high level estimation of the the volume of data per server/node in MBytes/day integrating Splunk with Red Hat OpenShift using the new Splunk Connect for Kubernetes (see Splunk Connect for OpenShift – Logging Part)?

The aim is to log:

  • Splunk Kubernetes objects
  • Splunk Kubernetes logging
  • Splunk Kubernetes metrics

We would then visualize everything that has been ingested thanks to "Splunk App for Infrastructure" already built by Splunk.

Thanks a lot,
Edoardo

I know this is an old post, but did you do it in the end?  And if so, do you have an idea of the volumes it took?
We are currently testing and have 1 test cluster up and running with just a few pods, but are already seeing a metrics volume of 16-17GB/day.  I find this a very high amount for just and empty cluster.
It's more volume for some metrics than our entire NGINX access log monitoring with millions of connections every day...
