00:00.000 --> 00:02.565
>> You made it through
Module 2. Good job.

00:02.565 --> 00:03.870
This is an introduction to

00:03.870 --> 00:05.490
Splunk and we're
going to be talking

00:05.490 --> 00:08.685
about Splunk products,
resources, and certifications.

00:08.685 --> 00:11.680
This is going to be a
relatively short module.

00:11.680 --> 00:13.860
Really what we're talking
about comes down to

00:13.860 --> 00:15.810
two things that we'll have
in two separate videos;

00:15.810 --> 00:18.375
the Splunk website
and Splunk products.

00:18.375 --> 00:20.250
Now, I know you know
how to click around

00:20.250 --> 00:23.075
a website and find
what you need to,

00:23.075 --> 00:26.145
but it's really good to
know what's out there,

00:26.145 --> 00:27.510
what they have available.

00:27.510 --> 00:30.150
Splunk has a fantastic community

00:30.150 --> 00:33.165
built around their product
and so much documentation.

00:33.165 --> 00:34.530
We'll just take a few minutes

00:34.530 --> 00:36.345
and go over where you
can find that stuff,

00:36.345 --> 00:39.015
as well as where you can
check for updates to

00:39.015 --> 00:40.320
the certification path and

00:40.320 --> 00:42.135
see if they have
any new courses.

00:42.135 --> 00:45.500
They recently just added a
couple new free courses,

00:45.500 --> 00:46.820
so those are worth checking

00:46.820 --> 00:48.485
out and we'll show
you how to do that.

00:48.485 --> 00:52.385
Splunk products is a little
bit bigger of a topic.

00:52.385 --> 00:54.350
If you're saying you
have Splunk experience,

00:54.350 --> 00:55.910
you need to understand
what that means.

00:55.910 --> 00:58.295
Like we talked about
in the first module,

00:58.295 --> 00:59.900
Splunk is a company and it has

00:59.900 --> 01:01.190
many different
products and they've

01:01.190 --> 01:02.650
even acquired new ones.

01:02.650 --> 01:04.985
You should have a
general idea of

01:04.985 --> 01:06.845
what some of the
other products can

01:06.845 --> 01:09.470
accomplish beyond
just course Splunk,

01:09.470 --> 01:10.880
as well as speak to you how they

01:10.880 --> 01:12.470
integrate with one
another and make

01:12.470 --> 01:13.940
recommendations for
a company about

01:13.940 --> 01:16.030
what they might look
at to purchase.

01:16.030 --> 01:17.690
That's what we're
going to talk about in

01:17.690 --> 01:20.870
this module. Let's get started.
