Splunk Architecture for huge system

[meenal901]

Hi,

We are starting Splunk on a small environment (2 UF + 1 Indexer) which will eventually be deployed to an huge Production environment as well consisting of over 100 servers (forwarders) and multiple indexers. The data flow would be around 500GB per day (5GB from each forwarder).

Can you help us in planning the architecture for this? What will be the licensing cost considering data filtration almost upto 50%.

Thanks,
Meenal

I agree with Ayn's answer in this case -- "If you're planning to run Splunk in this kind of high log volume environment you definitely should contact Splunk directly and get in contact with their PS guys who can look at your case more thoroughly"
