Story
Industrials work at Arcadis spans more than one site, even when headquarters sits in the Netherlands. Application health was splitting across regional habits. SREs and developers asked for a shared way to run production support without freezing local judgment.
Splunk (Splunk Enterprise Security) is what they standardized on. Splunk (a Cisco company) is a data platform for security and observability, used to search machine data and investigate incidents. Arcadis uses it as the system of record for application health, with SREs and developers as the primary operators and other groups coming in through the same queue.
