SPLK-1001 Exam - Question 81


According to Splunk best practices, which placement of the wildcard results in the most efficient search?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: C

According to Splunk best practices, the placement of the wildcard at the end of the term (fail*) results in the most efficient search. This is because Splunk can optimize searches where the wildcard is at the end of the search string, leveraging its indexing capabilities to quickly locate matching entries. Placing the wildcard elsewhere makes the search less efficient as it requires more extensive pattern matching.
