ESS Training and Resources

[Wilson]

Is there any good training or resources for ESS? My focus is on utilising ESS to develop relevant management dashboard instead of administrating ESS.

I had a bit of a scenario where the person who looks after it left the company. I have also contacted Splunk sales locally and they can only point me to the general Splunk training. I am also aware there is an ESS admin training but I am looking for something similar to the "Using Splunk" training.

Can anyone be able to point me in the right direction? I have tried the splunk site but can only find a 2 pages product brochure, 3 high level overview videos and other promotional material on the splunk site. Contacting sales also does not help as mentioned above.

Hi Starlette,

There is quite a bit of documentation available on ESS. Assuming you are an existing customer, contact support@splunk.com and they can provide you access to the documentation. We do intend to post the docs on our doc web site sometime in the near future, but for now this is best way to get it. If you are not an existing customer, contact sales@splunk.com.

Thanks jhansen! I will ask our admin to get it from support. Cheers

You really have to play this ball though sales,,,so contact splunk u.s. that your local splunkcontact/partner didnt deliver your answers.

ESS is pack of knowledge with services/education etc, and there are plenty of resources outthere.
But again, those are guided by an accountmanager.

Thanks for the suggestion. Would you know of any example of resources I could ask for?
