So today in the Splunk Facebook group I was asked a fair enough question. "how do I get data in". It's funny how simple this question can seem to someone starting with Splunk but as you gain experience how loaded this question is.
Rather than try and write a 100 page blog about data management in Splunk, what I'd rather due is
Two talk that have been outstanding for my ability as a Splunk admin are here
Data Curator Here we see gamification and monitoring of the quality of your data. I am shocked not more people do this. Creates an outstanding checklist for doing it right.
Data Settings Here we go into details on managing the props.conf/transforms.conf and getting the data in. He makes it so simple. http://conf.splunk.com/session/2014/conf2014_AndrewDuca_Splunk_Deploying.mp4
But over thew years I've found these talks as well to be great.

Trying to keep that infosec oriented and my posts here Splunk oriented.
