SPLK-2002 Exam - Question 15


Which Splunk Enterprise offering has its own license?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: BC

Splunk Heavy Forwarder has its own license because it is a full-fledged Splunk Enterprise instance that can perform advanced data parsing, indexing, and forwarding. This capability requires a license, unlike the Splunk Universal Forwarder, which is a lightweight, free tool primarily used to collect and forward data without needing a separate license.

Correct answer is "C" Under Data Administration course --> Module3 Forwarder Configuration --> Understanding Universal forwarder --> It is mentioned that UF provided a separate installation binary with built in license (no limit)

B should be the answer, reason being Universal forwarder is not an enterprise.
