Case Study: Splunk achieves faster cloud provisioning and frees up resources with Ansible

Automating Cloud Infrastructure with Ansible

Splunk, the market-leading platform for Operational Intelligence, needed a unified way to automate the resource‑intensive, time‑consuming tasks of managing its cloud infrastructure so engineers could focus on higher‑value work.

By adopting Ansible and Ansible Tower, Splunk uses simple playbooks to provision and configure infrastructure, leverages scheduling and queuing for efficient job execution, and enables autoscaling via provisioning callbacks. The result: faster, repeatable provisioning and configuration, centralized cloud control, and freed engineering resources to deliver more business value.
