Hi Team,

I need some information on data visualization part of Splunk ,how is it better than data visualization of other tools.

For ex: Lets say i want to show data on a pie chart,so how is splunk's pie chart on a dashboard will be different from an excel or a siverlight or wpf's piechart one???

Thanks

Well for starters Splunk's visualization is part of Splunk, so it's all integrated, as opposed to if going the Excel route you would have to export your results, import them into Excel and then create graphs from them. I don't think this is a matter of "better/worse" though, as it all depends on your situation, so answering your question depends very much on what you're trying to do.
