Why WWT + Splunk: Turning Data into Digital Resilience the Right Way

Every enterprise runs on telemetry that streams from apps, networks, clouds and endpoints. Splunk turns that data into insight. WWT turns that insight into outcomes: architectures, integrations and services that scale across observability, security and automation.

In today's enterprise, data is both the greatest challenge and the greatest opportunity. Events, logs, metrics and traces stream in from every corner of the business—applications, networks, cloud platforms, end-user devices and beyond. As complexity and risk escalate, digital resilience has become a business imperative, not just a technical goal.

Cisco defines digital resilience as the ability to withstand, recover from, and adapt to disruptions while maintaining secure, reliable operations across the digital landscape. Achieving this requires more than uptime; it demands a unified approach to observability, security and assurance. Splunk delivers these at scale.

Splunk has long helped organizations make sense of this complexity. It enables organizations to collect, search, monitor, visualize, and act on their data. Its unrivaled capabilities deliver a truly "all-in-one" experience for a wide range of enterprise and business use cases. But, like any powerful platform, unlocking the full value of Splunk requires more than just deploying software. That's where World Wide Technology (WWT) comes in.

 WWT + Splunk for real impact

WWT helps organizations not only adopt Splunk but also tailor it to their unique business realities—from the data pipelines they build to the way their teams operate. As a strategic enabler and top-tier integrator, we bring deep technical expertise, proven architectures, and an unwavering focus on customer success. This commitment was recognized at Splunk .conf25, where WWT was named "Splunk Americas Partner of the Year 2025."

As a Premier Splunk Partner, WWT leverages Splunk to deliver end-to-end solutions that span observability, security, and automation, helping organizations transform data into action. Our experts seamlessly integrate Splunk with leading platforms like Cisco ISE, AppDynamics, ThousandEyes, Palo Alto, and VMware, while our Application Services team enables custom deployments that meet unique enterprise needs.

Here are some areas where WWT is deploying Splunk to make an impact.

 Real-world impact areas

Through the integration of enterprise telemetry across IT, OT and cloud environments, WWT advances digital resilience with the Splunk platform, empowering enterprises to transform data into actionable insights for proactive, scalable and secure operations. 

Here are some examples:
  • Splunk Observability Cloud: WWT makes it easy to connect Splunk Observability Cloud (O11y Cloud) to your current business systems. This includes the ability to ingest metrics, traces, and logs in real time and unified dashboards that show observability events from other Splunk products, such as ITSI, SOAR, and Enterprise Security.
  • Security Operations: Empowering SIEM and SOAR use cases with unified visibility across on-premises and cloud environments. This enables organizations to reduce risk and enhance their overall security posture through real-time threat detection, built-in UEBA, AI-assisted investigations, and robust SOAR capabilities.
  • IT and Network Operations: Leveraging events, metrics, logs, and traces enables faster problem identification and resolution—reducing Mean Time to Identify (MTTI) and Mean Time to Resolution (MTTR), while improving uptime and overall system availability.
  • Splunk Optimization:  WWT delivers comprehensive solutions that include proactive health checks, full data transparency, strategies for increased adoption, and cost optimization across the Splunk platform offerings.
  • AIOps and Observability: Leveraging full-stack observability and WWT's proven methodology, organizations can harness analytics, automation, and machine learning to reduce noise, correlate events, and enable proactive operations across hybrid environments.
  • Extending to the Edge: Splunk Edge Hub unlocks new opportunities for monitoring Operational Technology (OT) and Internet of Things (IoT) environments by seamlessly connecting industrial sectors such as manufacturing and energy with IT monitoring platforms

 Innovations driving autonomous operations

WWT and Splunk are empowering businesses to innovate faster with autonomous operations that seamlessly blend AI, automation, and observability. Turning complexity into competitive advantage. 

Here's how we make it happen:
  • Designing Splunk Pods on Cisco UCS for scalable deployments.
  • Monitoring LLM and GPU workloads to support AI-driven initiatives.
  • Extending visibility through Zero Trust integrations.
  • Preparing for AgenticOps where systems act independently to resolve issues.
  • Splunk Health Checks to ensure optimal performance and actionable insights.
  • AI/ML-Driven Resilience for proactive and predictive operations.

 

 WWT's approach: Reduce risk, improve and grow

WWT's Advanced Technology Center (ATC) is one of our biggest innovation drivers. It gives you a secure, dedicated space to validate deployments and test Splunk at scale before going live, helping you reduce risk and speed up time to value. 


The ATC transforms that idea into useful results in the following ways:
  • De-risking adoption: Test integrations, validate data pipelines and simulate workloads in the ATC.
  • Optimizing Deployments: Align Splunk with business goals—improve SOC, enhance hybrid cloud visibility, and gain real-time insights.
  • Edge observability: Leverage the ATC to demonstrate how Splunk can extend observability to the edge, capturing data from sensors, industrial devices and remote assets.
  • Scaling with Resilience: Validate and build environments that support growth, compliance and evolving business needs.
  • Deep integration expertise: WWT extends beyond Splunk's own ecosystem to a wide range of third-party products, enabling holistic, enterprise-wide observability and security so Splunk delivers maximum value across diverse environments.

WWT also provides end-to-end services to accelerate time to value. Whether it's a rapid proof-of-concept or reference architecture, it can be built and tested in the ATC to demonstrate how Splunk supports both immediate wins and long-term strategy.

 Why choose WWT for Splunk?

The decision to work with WWT comes down to one word: confidence. 
  • Confidence in WWT as a trusted Splunk partner with deep technical and business expertise.
  • Confidence that WWT will drive measurable business outcomes from your Splunk investment.
  • Confidence WWT will align Splunk with your existing environment for optimized performance and scalability.
  • Confidence that you can validate designs, run proof-of-concepts and perform functionality testing in WWT's ATC before moving to production.

In summary, WWT's status as a top Splunk partner is about more than accolades; it's about assisting you in achieving tangible outcomes. WWT and Splunk enable your company to scale, automate, and secure operations with confidence by fusing extensive knowledge of observability, security and automation. If you're ready to take the next step in your digital resilience journey, let's connect and discover what we can accomplish together.
