Hi Team,

                  Recently we have received a notification from Splunk to upgrade to Victoria Experience. And I want to know Is it good to upgrade to Victoria or else stay with the classic experience.??

 

Dear Splunk Cloud Platform Customer,
We are reaching out to inform you of an upcoming maintenance window
for Splunk to deliver a cloud migration for your stack: ***** This
migration is known as the Victoria Experience.

This is the message we received from Splunk team, does anyone have any idea regarding this classic and Victoria experience?

Please do suggest which one is better to go with

You probably want the Victoria Experience.  The main benefits are: more apps can be self-installed (no need for a Support ticket); and 2) inputs can run on search heads rather than the IDM (the IDM goes away).

As @richgalloway said, you probably will want the Victoria Experience. For more details about the differences you could reference for the following: link: https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/SplunkCloud/latest/Admin/Experience
