Splunk, Carahsoft Work with Microsoft on Cloud-Based Analytics for Government

RESTON, Va. and SAN FRANCISCO, May 17, 2021 — Carahsoft Technology Corp., The Trusted Government IT Solutions Provider, and Splunk, Inc., provider of the Data-to-Everything Platform, announced today the availability of Splunk Enterprise Transformation with Azure for public sector customers. This solution brings together the full capabilities of Splunk Enterprise, Microsoft Azure and partner led services to deliver a cloud-based, real-time data analytics platform.

Splunk Enterprise Transformation with Azure is designed to help agencies deliver new services faster with increased performance and reliability. This scalable solution supports the collection of hundreds of terabytes of data per day from workloads residing on-premises, in the cloud or across hybrid environments. Splunk Enterprise allows agencies to leverage their entire ecosystem of both structured and unstructured data to achieve their missions in a real-time and secure manner. As one use case, this solution could help intelligence agencies and law enforcement to more efficiently collect, analyze and store data related to security threats, while also assisting agencies to use data-driven insights to deliver new services and achieve efficiencies in existing ones.

“With the ability to quickly deploy Splunk Enterprise on Azure, agencies across all levels of government can deliver new services faster and with increased performance and reliability,” said Jeremy Rissi, group vice president, public sector, Splunk. “This solution provides agencies with a complete package of powerful data analytics, cloud-based storage and processing capabilities, and professional services to implement and maintain a highly scalable and secure system.”

Federal, State and Local agencies are working to improve the capabilities and security of their systems and software. Data-enabled insights, real-time access to information and improved efficiencies are core components of Government modernization efforts, which makes the Splunk Enterprise Transformation with Azure an ideal solution.

“Splunk has helped numerous Carahsoft Government customers dramatically improve mission outcomes, protect critical assets and drive modernization,” said Craig P. Abod, Carahsoft President. “We look forward to working closely with Splunk, Microsoft and our reseller partners to help the public sector realize the benefits of deploying Splunk Enterprise in Azure.”
