App Awareness Overview

App Awareness

The App Awareness Atlas Element helps Admins determine which Splunk apps are deployed in their Splunk environment, how they are being used, and who is using them. App Awareness also identifies any inconsistencies in your Splunk apps that may exist by displaying differences in app versions or default/local Knowledge Objects that are distributed across your Splunk deployment - all from one easy to use interface.

App Awareness is useful for helping to identify changes made to Splunk apps over time, and understanding if any customizations or other preparations are needed before migrating to other servers, data centers, or Splunk Cloud. App Awareness is a companion App to the Atlas Splunk Migration Helper application, which is very useful when migrating your Splunk environment from one environment to another, as well as supporting numerous use cases on its own.
