The Best of .conf20: Platform Sessions

Although .conf20 has come to a close, you can still catch the magic thanks to the online session recordings. We had nearly two dozen sessions alone in the Platform category, and we’ve rounded up some of the very best below. These are the fan favorites, the sessions that announced the niftiest product features and explored the wildest use cases. 

• What's New in Splunk Cloud and Enterprise
  Whether you're a Splunk veteran or rookie, whether you're a smaller business or larger organization, there’s sure to be something for you in this session. Izzy Park and Azmir Mohamed, Directors of Product Management at Splunk, fly through some of the coolest additions to Splunk Cloud and Splunk Enterprise 8.1. You’ll also hear about new beta features such as Splunk Operator for Kubernetes and Cloud Admin Experience.
  
  
• How Progressive Used Splunk To Monitor Employee Safety During COVID-19
  Check out this especially topical session on how Progressive Insurance relied on Splunk as it expanded and monitored remote access capabilities for 41,000+ employees during the COVID-19 pandemic. Learn how it all unfolded in this session.
  
  
• Streaming Live From Mars: A Data Stream Journey
  We have Mars to thank for the likes of Twix, Skittles, M&Ms and many other snacks and food items. Mars, on the other hand, has Splunk Data Stream Processor (DSP) to thank for its now-simplified data landscape. DSP helps Mars intelligently route data across this multinational enterprise and get better visibility into data sprawl. 
  
  
• Beyond the Algorithms: Advanced Analytics and ML @ Splunk
  This session is crafted just for data scientists, seasoned admin and analysts. We unveil our new ML beta program, Splunk Machine Learning Environment (SMLE). With SMLE, you can build and operationalize ML models at scale with commonly used data science languages like R, Python and Scala through integration with Jupyter notebooks.
