Provides great visibility, analysis, and data telemetry
We currently lack log analysis capabilities in Splunk APM. Implementing this functionality would be very beneficial. With log analysis, we could eliminate our dependence on Splunk Enterprise and rely solely on APM. The user interface design of APM seems intuitive, which would likely simplify setting up log-level alerts. Currently, all log-level alerting is done through Splunk Enterprise, while infrastructure-level alerting has already transitioned to Splunk APM. The Splunk APM documentation on the official Splunk website could benefit from additional resources. Specifically, including more examples of adapter creation and management using real-world use cases would be helpful. During our setup process, we found the documentation lacked specific implementation details. While some general information was available on public platforms like Google and YouTube, it wasn't comprehensive. This suggests that others using Splunk APM in the future might face similar challenges due to the limited information available on social media. It's important to remember that many users rely on social media for setup guidance these days.
