Do you have an api or a configuration to use ODBC for Oracle to interface to a Oracle relational database so I can setup a Splunk app to run queries?
I was able to run a temp instance of Splunk and configure it to view other data types that we use that are nothing more than formatted asci text files with different extension names. But if I could setup pages that would pull directly from the database that would be very cool.
I want to replace Crystal Reports with Splunk !!
From Splunk documentation, here is an example script that polls a database. Though you'll almost certainly need to do some work on it yourself to get it working within your environment, it is a great place to start:
