• Learn About the .conf22 Experience From a Community Perspective .Memories of .conf22 are still simmering over here with the Splunk Community Team. We laughed, learned, shared, taught, and even got to hug (!) many of our community friends for the first time in three or more years. There was so much positive social energy bursting throughout all of Splunk's Community programs. So much so that it's hard to put into words. But, we tried! Check out updates and photos from the community and get a feel for what the experience was like on the ground.
