Splunk FAQ

Which write mode can I use in Splunk when syncing data from AWS Pricing?

At the moment, CloudQuery only supports append write mode, this means that it will not remove data from your Splunk destination and will create new indexes when needed.

You can manage the rate at which data is synced from AWS Pricing to Splunk by using the batch_size, batch_size_bytes, and max_concurrent_requests integers. In general, you should keep the max_concurrent_requests integer as low as possible while aiming for a ratio of roughly 1,000 between batch_size and max_concurrent_requests, this will ensure that the response times from your Splunk instance remain reasonable.

The Splunk Destination integration allows you to send cloud asset data collected by CloudQuery to Splunk for further analysis, enabling you to monitor, visualize, and query cloud infrastructure metrics in real-time.

AWS Pricing FAQ

Do I need AWS credentials in order to sync from AWS pricing to Splunk?

No, you don't need to provide access credentials to use CloudQuery to syncing data from AWS Pricing to Splunk. This is because all information in the AWS Pricing API is publicly available and unrelated to your account or current billing setup.

Yes. If you have an offer code, then you can add this to the ‘offer_codes’ spec when you set up the sync. This code will then be applied to all pricing information that is returned during the sync.

Yes. This is done in the region_codes spec when you set up your sync. Keep in mind that regular expressions are not supported, so you will need to exactly specify which regions you want to receive pricing information for when you set up your AWS Pricing to Splunk sync.
