Case Study: Bosch boosts factory efficiency with Splunk

Bosch cuts query time from 15 minutes to 20 seconds with Splunk

The customer, Bosch, faced a challenge in its Manufacturing Solutions division where manufacturing data from numerous sources was difficult to analyze. Using complex SQL queries and large Excel spreadsheets to correlate data was a slow, manual process that hindered efficiency, particularly in the production of vital lambda sensors. To address this, Bosch turned to the vendor Splunk and its Splunk Enterprise platform.

By implementing Splunk, Bosch consolidated 28 data sources, enabling all employees to perform their own data queries. The solution slashed the time for core analysis from 15 minutes down to as little as 20 seconds. This efficiency gain allowed for proactive equipment maintenance and freed up staff for more complex tasks. The vendor Splunk was instrumental in achieving these results, which also included implementing over 80 critical alerts and leading to very high customer satisfaction.
