Criterion #1: Unified visibility across domains
Unified visibility isn’t just about seeing more data. It’s about understanding how everything connects.
A slowdown in an application might originate in infrastructure. A network issue might surface as a customer experience problem. Without a unified view, teams are left piecing together signals across tools — losing time when it matters most.
A modern data architecture should bring those signals together, giving teams the context they need to move from symptoms to root cause faster.
Correlate signals across domainsDoes your architecture allow teams to connect data across infrastructure, applications, and networks in a single view.
Reduce time lost to tool switchingHow much time is lost switching between tools during an incident?
Improve cross-team alignmentAre teams working from the same view of what’s happening?
Our initial Splunk implementation gave us visibility. But visibility alone wasn’t the breakthrough — correlation was. By integrating additional data streams … we moved beyond seeing what was happening to predicting what would happen next."
