HTTP by default; and no real sizing guidance

  • November 10, 2015
  • Review verified by AWS Marketplace

i'm an AWS newbie in terms of using AMIs and so on. was first and foremost pretty surprised to see the image using HTTP by default.

also the sizing info for AWS specifically both seem quite dated and "unofficial" as in only in blog form or a one-off PDF versus a proper doc page... so you're left researching and calculating (and guessing) too much on the upside before actually diving in and using the instance.

http://blogs.splunk.com/2012/03/07/splunk-and-aws-sizing-revisited/
http://www.splunk.com/web_assets/pdfs/secure/Splunk_and_Amazon_Web_Services_Tech_Brief.pdf

things like extra storage, clustering, and archiving are really not touched on in any detail in the docs, so we don't use this AMI at all for much more than small tests.

best info we can find beyond that is around cloud formation stack builds, which is a good step in the right direction, but again doesn't seem super authoritative:

Just three commands

As far as I see this ami is just the amazon AMI but with splunk downloaded and installed and a permissive security group.

In addition Splunk blundled is outdated and there are constrains to the instance size, for example there's no m3.large to choose.
