In these unusual weeks, completely different information is suddenly proving useful and meaningful. Most companies have done everything they can in recent weeks to ensure their staff can work safely and healthily from home. This has a significant impact on your infrastructure. The number of VPN connections is skyrocketing, firewalls are busier than ever, and internet connections are also overloaded. Consequently, there is suddenly a strong need for insight into the quality of remote working.
Can your employees still manage? Is there enough capacity? Is the water up to their lips, or is there still bandwidth left? Ideally, we want answers to these questions quickly, and of course, without making too many changes to the current environment. Fortunately, there's now something available to help with that.
Splunk Remote Work Insights
This new Splunk solution provides insight into the bottlenecks that occur during periods when employees are largely working from home. Splunk RWI is simple to set up. By connecting your VPN solution to Splunk, the statistics become available in Splunk RWI. The same applies to SSO solutions like Okta and videoconferencing platforms like Zoom. Splunk's technology add-ons can be used to efficiently access this data.
In this way, Splunk helps organizations with a toolkit to maintain optimal employee productivity and performance, as well as critical business processes. Splunk RWI includes an executive dashboard with a holistic view of the business and supports IT and security teams in managing applications and securing networks, regardless of location.
Splunk RWI is free to use and has been made available via Splunk's GitHub page. Also read the blog by Splunk's CTO Tim Tully about Splunk RWI for more information.
