Hitachi VSP One Object v3.x Add-on for Splunk
Splunk Cloud
Overview
Details
Enterprise object storage systems generate massive amounts of operational data, but most organizations lack proper monitoring tools to make sense of it. When storage issues arise - slow S3 operations, unexpected latency spikes, or network bottlenecks - IT teams spend valuable time manually troubleshooting instead of focusing on strategic initiatives.
The Hitachi VSP One Object Prometheus Collector solves this problem by automatically collecting and forwarding comprehensive storage metrics to Splunk. Monitor S3 API performance, track request latencies, analyze bucket usage patterns, and observe network proxy behavior - all from your existing Splunk environment.
Designed specifically for Hitachi VSP One Object v3.1 with enterprise security standards, reliable data collection, and seamless Splunk integration. The add-on handles authentication, retries failed connections automatically, and processes thousands of metrics efficiently.
