A customer wants to understand how Splunk bucket types (hot, warm, cold) impact search performance within their environment. Their indexers have a single storage device for all data.
What is the proper message to communicate to the customer?
- A . The bucket types (hot, warm, or cold) have the same search performance characteristics within the customer’s environment.
- B . While hot, warm, and cold buckets have the same search performance characteristics within the customers environment, due to their optimized structure, the thawed buckets are the most performant.
- C . Searching hot and warm buckets result in best performance because by default the cold buckets are miniaturized by removing TSIDX files to save on storage cost.
- D . Because the cold buckets are written to a cheaper/slower storage volume, they will be slower to search compared to hot and warm buckets which are written to Solid State Disk (SSD).
An index receives approximately 50GB of data per day per indexer at an even and consistent rate. The customer would like to keep this data searchable for a minimum of 30 days. In addition, they have hourly scheduled searches that process a week’s worth of data and are quite sensitive to search performance.
Given ideal conditions (no restarts, nor drops/bursts in data volume), and following PS best practices, which of the following sets of indexes.conf settings can be leveraged to meet the requirements?
- A . – frozenTimePeriodInSecs, maxDataSize, maxVolumeDataSizeMB, maxHotBuckets
- B . – maxDataSize, maxTotalDataSizeMB, maxHotBuckets, maxGlobalDataSizeMB
- C . – maxDataSize, frozenTimePeriodInSecs, maxVolumeDataSizeMB
- D . – frozenTimePeriodInSecs, maxWarmDBCount, homePath.maxDataSizeMB,maxHotSpanSecs
