For those interested in monitoring real-time data being consumed by Splunk we’ve introduced a new feature called Live Tail to the latest preview release. Additionally, we’ve added a nifty new REST endpoint /v3/splunk/tail for your custom application needs.
More information can be found in these videos:
- A quick walkthrough of the new preview release feature Live Tail, its UI, and some sample code - See Video
- An overview of the architecture used to integrate real-time data from Splunk Live Tail in a web browser. Challenges and workarounds when using JavaScript/Flash hybrids - See Video
Happy Streams!

Carl,
In a distributed deployment where is the search filters applied? At the edge indexing nodes when data first hits splunk or at the UI server hosting the view?
Thanks, RJ

Question: Is what we are seeing “pre-index”? or do we have all the searching power (including segment level searching) in Live Tail?

RJ,
Live tail is single server only for the near future.
Michael,
What you are seeing is pre-index, however, you have the full searching power, including segment level searching and wildcards. It doesn’t fully support search/where at the moment, but it will by GA.
