Configuring the Splunk On-Call integration with IT Service Intelligence
An incident is a problem, represented by an alert, that could negatively impact customers, your employees, and the stakeholders inside or outside of your organization. Your company uses Splunk ITSI to normalize, correlate, group related alerts, and generate incident notifications. Now, you want these critical notifications sent to Splunk On-Call to quickly get those actionable ITSI episodes to the right teams so they can resolve problems.
This article is part of the Splunk Use Case Explorer for Observability, which is designed to help you identify and implement prescriptive use cases that drive incremental business value. It explains the solution using a fictitious example company, called CSCorp, that hosts a cloud native application called Online Boutique. In the AIOps lifecycle described in the Use Case Explorer, this article is part of Notification.
