Case Study: Splunk achieves lower admin costs and faster dashboard performance with Tableau Software

Splunk migration to Tableau Online eliminates server admin overhead and drives better dashboard performance

Splunk, the San Francisco-based data platform company, was using Tableau Server to power internal dashboards, but rapid adoption created server capacity and performance issues along with growing admin overhead. As a cloud-first SaaS company, Splunk looked to Tableau Software and Tableau Cloud to simplify operations and support scalability.

Tableau Software helped Splunk migrate to Tableau Cloud in a smooth two-day process with zero downtime, supported by Tableau professional services and a structured governance model. The move cut more than $300,000 per year in server and platform administration costs, improved dashboard performance by 2x, and set Splunk up to expand Tableau adoption from 1,000 to 2,000 users.
