Splunk Dev

Monitoring App

I have a published app on SplunkBase which is designed to pull event data via API from an App which I publish to Splunk with. It's been working fine for several years.

A recent request from users is for more realtime data which would require me to pull data from API. It's not really suitable for logging and where I have done this before on an iPhone app, I held in ram as opposed to being "logged".

Ideally I would want to pull data once and for the response to be shared across multiple users as opposed to many users each individually polling data.

Is this something that is possible with a Splunk app?

The app can pull the data once (or periodically) and store it in a lookup.  Then it's available to users from the lookup.
