What happens if the amount of data exceeds the daily limit in Splunk Cloud?

「Total ingest limit of your ingest-based subscription」


・Data ingestion stops
 or
・Splunk contacts you to discuss adding a license, but ingestion does not stop

In a word: nothing.

Ingestion will not stop.  Unless you're grossly over the contracted amount, Splunk is unlikely to contact you.

At license renewal time, however, Splunk may recommend a higher limit (at higher cost, no doubt).
