ich bin jetzt bei Kapitel 5 und arbeite schon seit ca. 1.5 Jahren intensiver mit Splunk als Systemarchitekt. Dieses Buch ist für mich als Recap da ich die Schulungen schon einmal besucht habe, die Erinnerungen aber teilweise verblassen weil man an einer bestehenden Umgebung mit einigem nicht so regelmässig in Kontakt kommt. Ich arbeite das Buch von vorne nach hinten durch und entdecke vieles bekanntes, teilweise in einem anderen Kontext und auch immer wieder ein paar neue SAchen wo das "AHA-Erlebnis" sich einstellt. Man lernt ja bekanntlich nie aus. Die Quizze am Ende eines jeden Kapitels sind hilfreich uns nicht zu einfach ausserdem sehr wichtig für den ganz Schnellen die "Summary Abschnitte" am Ende eines jeden Kapitels die noch einmal das wichtigste zusammenfassen. Sehr gelungenes Buch

Can I download the code files for Early Access titles? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We try to ensure that all books in Early Access have code available to use, download, and fork on GitHub. This helps us be more agile in the development of the book, and helps keep the often changing code base of new versions and new technologies as up to date as possible. Unfortunately, however, there will be rare cases when it is not possible for us to have downloadable code samples available until publication.

When we publish the book, the code files will also be available to download from the Packt website.

How accurate is the publication date? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The publication date is as accurate as we can be at any point in the project. Unfortunately, delays can happen. Often those delays are out of our control, such as changes to the technology code base or delays in the tech release. We do our best to give you an accurate estimate of the publication date at any given time, and as more chapters are delivered, the more accurate the delivery date will become.

We'll let you know every time there has been an update to a course that you've bought in Early Access.

Early Access helps to unlock the potential of our content early, to help you start your learning when you need it most. You not only get access to every chapter as it's delivered, edited, and updated, but you'll also get the finalized, DRM-free product to download in any format you want when it's published.
