Getting Data In

How do we calculate the RAM usage by applications on different servers?

I am trying to figure out how much RAM an app on a Windows server is consuming for a given index.

The OS Technical Add-On does not have the top.sh command that unix offers. But thankfully from Splunk 6 onwards, we can get some app level stats because of _introspection.

Try the search:

index=_introspection host=  component=PerProcess data.process= |timechart span=10m avg(data.pct_memory)

Example:

index=_introspection host=DEV*  component=PerProcess data.process=splunkd |timechart span=10m avg(data.pct_memory)
