VMware vROps – Splunk Integration Use Case

If your teams are using VMware vROps for performance monitoring, analytics and workload balancing, and on the other hand Splunk to lower fraud risks and speed up critical decision making, then you can take advantage of integrating both tools. This way you will have a complete overview on your infrastructure and operational data.

For example, an event has been created in Splunk and the company’s IT team needs to have this event recorded in vROps. Instead of transferring it manually, ZigiOps detects the event, runs it through your preset filters and if necessary, records it in vROps in real time. If the event is updated in Splunk, these updates are automatically transferred in vROps, too.

Another example is if there is a vROps event which needs to be entered into Splunk, so the IT team can take appropriate actions. ZigiOps will automatically detect the event and record all its attributes, according to your preset mapping, into Splunk. Any updates or changes are also detected in real time and recorded in the corresponding Splunk event.

You can easily set filters and mapping in ZigiOps, so only the needed information is transferred.

Challenges for vROps and Splunk users

VMware vROps is a unified operations platform used for performance monitoring and analytics, remediation and troubleshooting, capacity management and planning, and more. Splunk helps you monitor and analyze your data, as well as lower fraud risks and data breaches.

These platforms are widely used for monitoring operations in large enterprises. They are often used by different teams. Both vROps and Splunk can give you great insights on your assets and business. However, if they are not connected you will miss on important action points.

Real-time data transfer between the tools you are using is crucial for getting the complete overview on your systems and acting quickly when critical issues arise.

How do we solve them?

You can easily connect VMware vROps and Splunk with the help of ZigiOps no-code integration platform. This way you can transfer all events from vROps directly into Splunk and vice versa. When the two systems work flawlessly together you can automatically enrich your data and eliminate mistakes and delays. This allows taking measures for critical issues before they affect your customers.

Thanks to the advanced filtering and mapping capabilities of ZigiOps, you can make sure only the necessary data is transferred. You can receive all the details for predefined events from Splunk directly into vROps. Any updates are also automatically synced.
