Hello

Does Splunk in-memory technology work?

Big data systems are using in-memory technology across Splunk platforms (data collection/transmission, storage, retrieval, etc.)
I wonder if in-memory technology is applied.

If you have in-memory technology, is Splunk self-developed? Or I wonder if open-source was used.

If you have any data to refer to, please share it with us.

It would be nice to know what is the objective of your question and what exactly do you mean by it.

Because the question contains a bunch of marketing buzzwords with no real world applicability, to be honest.

Everything can be "in-memory" as long as you have enough memory.

In-memory technology refers to a technology that stores data in RAM rather than disk. Because processing speed is up to 10,000 times faster than disk storage methods, it is developed as a data storage, processing, and analysis solution centered on database (db) companies such as SAP and Oracle.

Is the same in-memory technology applied to Splunk?

Does Splunk's Queue (parsing Queue, index Queue...) processing also correspond to in-memory?

Sorry, but again you're repeating marketing buzzwords. If you have enough RAM, everything can be memory-based. On the other hand - if you don't have enough RAM, even your "in-memory processing" will be swapped out to disk.

In general, Splunk of course tries to do as much as it can or as it is configured to do in memory.
