  Processing that amount of data is going to be expensive, regardless.

    No, it's orders of magnitude cheaper than Splunk.

      They mean doing the processing that Splunk does is expensive so there simply needs to be less data going into the system (via the pre-processing steps I mentioned) above in order to keep costs sane. With that said Splunk should offer such a pre-processing product (maybe it does?) which would probably increase their moat even though it reduces revenue somewhat in the near term.

        Splunk has Edge Processor and Ingest actions to filter, mask and route data. https://www.splunk.com/en_us/blog/platform/introducing-edge-processor-next-gen-data-transformation.html https://www.splunk.com/en_us/blog/platform/introducing-edge-... https://www.splunk.com/en_us/blog/conf-splunklive/ingest-actions-data-access-when-where-and-how-you-need-it.html https://www.splunk.com/en_us/blog/conf-splunklive/ingest-act...

    I think it’s a situation where splunk doesn’t have a motivation to reduce cost as they can charge a lot and customers pay. So it doesn’t need to be expensive, naturally, it just is.
