Getting Data In

Looking for a device to track home power output/data

Looking for a device that can monitor power usage that is compatible with splunk. Looking to place it connected to an outlet or something like that to detect if the power goes out in a building or not. I see lots of articles about combining Splunk with smart home products that could do something like this but nobody ever says explicitly what to buy if you want to set it up to do something like that. If anyone has any ideas please let me know

Any device that can emit events in a fairly standardized way (most probably by syslog) is "compatible" with splunk. You just have to receive the events, parse them and react accordingly.

Do you have any recommendations of such a device?
