Entity Pricing
What is entity-based pricing?
Entity-based pricing is available for Splunk Observability Cloud, which is a right sized cloud portfolio that minimizes pricing volatility.
This works best for customers who need to solve defined ITOps and DevOps use cases with bespoke capabilities.
How does pricing under this model work?
Pricing per entity is based on the number of protected devices or hosts that you want to analyze, protect or monitor. This easy, tiered option makes cost visible and predictable. You can experiment with new capabilities and scale to unlimited data volumes while only worrying about the number of assets you’re managing, not the volume of data they’re generating.
What kind of licensing is offered under Entity Pricing?
Annual subscriptions are available for Splunk Observability Cloud.
Who can leverage Entity Pricing?
Entity-based pricing is only available to private sector organizations in the Americas at this time. Contact us to find the pricing that best fits your needs.

What is Workload Pricing?
Workload pricing aligns your investments in Splunk with how you use it to derive insights from your data. The primary pricing factor in this model is the compute capacity consumed for search and analytics workloads rather than the data volume ingested. Gain visibility into your license consumption and control how your total compute capacity gets used across various use cases and Splunk capabilities. This model is available for our cloud products and some of our on-premises offerings.

Pricing Policy

To align with industry standards, Splunk has adopted a Standard Uplift policy for renewals to incorporate additional value driven by product enhancements and increased cost of services.
Unless otherwise agreed to in a customer order, for a 1-year, 2-year, or 3-year renewal of term license product(s) and/or subscription service(s) purchased, commencing at the expiration of the Initial Term, the annual net pricing for license products and/or subscription services purchased shall increase by 9% for a 1-year renewal, 7% per year compounded annually for a 2-year renewal, or 5% per year compounded annually for a 3-year renewal.
Commencing in February 2024, list prices for cloud and term ingest capacities below 500GB will be raised by 10% in AMER and EMEA. This applies to Ingest only and includes Enterprise Security, ITSI, and all compliant variants of the Splunk platform.
