Hey everyone!

You know me, I'm the most popular Splunk instructor here on Udemy. You've perhaps taken my Complete Splunk Beginner's Course, and you've been waiting for a course that's structured to help you earn the Splunk Enterprise Certified Admin certification.

Look no further! This is the first—and most comprehensive—course that covers the latest versions of Splunk Enterprise and Splunk Cloud Platform.

**Now included is a FREE practice exam!**

"Thanks for making this course, it was very useful. I did the exam and got the Admin cert." - Gustavs

In this class, we will cover everything on the exam blueprint in a fun and engaging way. We will provide you with the tools you need to pass the exam and get certified, including:

  • Demos

  • Exercises

  • Quizzes

  • Homework

  • A practice exam

Whether you've inherited a Splunk environment, are building one from scratch, or are simply curious about Splunk, this course was designed specifically for you!

We'll cover it all, from installing Splunk for the first time to architecting advanced distributed Splunk environments for large enterprises. We'll talk about search head clustering, heavy forwarders, indexer clustering, configuration files, authentication (yes, even with LDAP), and much more.

I look forward to working with you in this course, and in future courses!

    It's a bit light on details and incorrect in some places like licensing (search is blocked when you are in violation). I passed the exam today but only because I did a lot of practice papers in the run up which covered the gaps from this course. Also I didn't get the impression the instructor actually understood splunk and how forwarders search heads and indexers interacted. he was much keener talking about ancillary things like LDAP DN's etc which aren't required for the exam.

    Easy learning, great course. I recommend titling more slides so we can follow along better, and putting more of the nuanced speaking points as bullet points where they can supplement our knowledge on base material

    Unfortunately, I found this course below expectations. The content was not well-organized, and some topics lacked clear explanations or practical examples. It would be more helpful if the course included hands-on labs, real-world scenarios, and better instructor engagement. I appreciate the effort behind the course, but I believe there is room for improvement to make it more effective and valuable for learners.
