Why teams connect Rockset and Splunk

Put the same events, users, and metrics on both sides: Splunk and Rockset stay current in real time, in both directions.

Splunk is where teams explore, visualize, and report; Rockset is the store of record that holds the raw tables and full history behind those views. The two overlap wherever the same events, users, and metrics matter to both, and when the bridge between them is a nightly export or a hand-built extract, dashboards lag the warehouse and analysts spend the morning arguing over whose number is right.

Stacksync syncs Fired Alerts, KV Store Collections, Indexes, HTTP Event Collector in Splunk with Aliases, Integrations, Virtual Instances, Collections in Rockset field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields, and Stacksync resolves conflicts by rules you set. Whether the flow is warehouse tables feeding live reports or captured events and segments landing back in Rockset, every copy stays consistent.

Common use cases

  • 01 Ingest application, CRM, or database records into Splunk via the HTTP Event Collector so operational data lands alongside logs for correlation and dashboards.
  • 02 Read and write KV Store collections to keep Splunk lookups — asset inventories, allow/deny lists, enrichment tables — in sync with an external source of truth in both directions.
  • 03 Read query results back into an operational database to expose computed metrics to applications.
  • 04 Power in-app search and filtering over synced operational data using SQL over REST.

Common sync patterns

Where Splunk produces segments or scores: results back to the warehouse

Cohorts, segments, and computed metrics defined in Splunk write to Rockset as tables the rest of the stack can query and join.

Shared user and account keys

Users and accounts tracked in Splunk line up with the customer or user rows in Rockset on a stable key, so both sides count the same population.

Corrections propagate instead of reloading

When a record is fixed or backfilled on one side, the change reaches the other without a full reload, keeping history consistent across both.

What you can sync between Rockset and Splunk

Representative objects on each side — any object or custom field can map to any target. Schemas are auto-detected; types are converted between the two systems.

Rockset objects Splunk objects How this pairing syncs
Virtual Instances Isolated compute units that separate ingest from query workloads. Saved Searches Scheduled searches, reports, and the definitions behind alerts at /services/saved/searches with full create, update, and delete. Read out for governance and coverage review, or provisioned and updated from a config source. Virtual Instances is specific to Rockset and Saved Searches to Splunk — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Collections Schemaless document containers that ingested and synced records land in. Fired Alerts Triggered alert instances listed at /services/alerts/fired_alerts; alert configuration (conditions, schedule, actions) lives on the corresponding saved search. Landed in a database for alert-trend and detection-coverage reporting. Collections is specific to Rockset and Fired Alerts to Splunk — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Documents JSON records addressable by _id, written via the Write API in sync pipelines. KV Store Collections App-scoped, MongoDB-backed key-value collections at /servicesNS/{owner}/{app}/storage/collections/data/{collection} with full CRUD and batch endpoints. Genuinely bidirectional lookup/state store — read records out or write records in. Documents is specific to Rockset and KV Store Collections to Splunk — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Workspaces Namespaces that group collections and query lambdas per team or environment. Indexes Index inventory and settings (retention, max size, event counts) via /services/data/indexes, with create and edit; loaded into a database for capacity, retention, and data-onboarding tracking. Workspaces is specific to Rockset and Indexes to Splunk — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Query Lambdas Named, parameterized SQL queries invoked over REST to read synced data. HTTP Event Collector The write-in path: POST events and metrics to /services/collector (port 8088, or 443 on Splunk Cloud) authenticated with a per-input HEC token, so external records are indexed alongside logs for search and correlation. Query Lambdas is specific to Rockset and HTTP Event Collector to Splunk — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Aliases Stable names that point at collections, used to swap datasets without changing queries. Users and Roles Accounts at /services/authentication/users and role/capability definitions at /services/authorization/roles, with full CRUD; exported for access reviews or provisioned from an identity source of truth. Aliases is specific to Rockset and Users and Roles to Splunk — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Rockset and Splunk

Each direction of the sync is driven by what the source system can signal and what the destination accepts — detection, delivery, and expected latency below.

Rockset Splunk Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Rockset for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling via SQL queries on timestamp fields.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Splunk through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Splunk Rockset Sub-second propagation

DetectionSplunk notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Time-range searches over indexed events (earliest/latest on _time or _indextime).

DeliveryEach detected change is applied to Rockset as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Splunk: The management REST API throttles through search-concurrency quotas — max concurrent searches per user and role, plus per-CPU historical search limits in limits.conf — rather than a fixed per-request rate; exceeding quota queues or blocks jobs. HEC has per-token and per-instance throughput limits, and Splunk Cloud adds ingestion and API limits on top.

Splunk

Integration surface
REST API (management API + HTTP Event Collector)
Authentication
HTTP Basic (username/password), or a session key from POST /services/auth/login sent as Authorization: Splunk <key>, or a bearer authentication token (Authorization: Bearer <token>). The HTTP Event Collector uses its own per-input token (Authorization: Splunk <hec-token>). Management API defaults to port 8089; HEC to port 8088 (443 on Splunk Cloud).
Change detection
Time-range searches over indexed events (earliest/latest on _time or _indextime); events are immutable once indexed, so incremental extraction advances a time cursor rather than a modified-date CDC feed. Config objects such as saved searches and KV Store are polled; alerts can push via a saved-search webhook action.
