OUR STORY & MISSION

In 2018, company was founded to help companies make better, data-driven decisions. It started with one customer that made a huge investment in Splunk but lost their Splunk admin, had a rotating door of consultants and were scrambling to deploy their critical use cases. Our goal was to get them back on track to deliver their high-quality use cases and meet their tight deadlines. We accomplished that.

Our mission is to use data analytics to leverage more value from Splunk instances, or, like the client above, parachute in and help in extreme situations. Our team of engineers, architects, and data scientists have deep experience with Splunk, AWS, and a broad range of automation frameworks and data sources. If you’re thinking about starting an analytics project to make better, data-driven decisions — or are trying to get the most from your Splunk environment, contact us. We look forward to working with you.
