OSS_ilation writes "IT troubleshooting firm Splunk is using LinuxWorld
Boston as a platform to formally launch Splunk Base, a global wiki that
will offer IT pros a free-of-charge venue to exchange troubleshooting
information, tools and fixes. Splunk is promising that the wiki is
completely vendor neutral, and can be compared to Wikipedia, the online
open encyclopedia that is regulated and updated by the
community-at-large. Users don't even have to have a copy of Splunk
Professional to use it. From the article: 'If you believe the research
from firms like Framingham, Mass.-based IDC, then Splunk Base has
arrived at a key moment. According to IDC, companies will spend more
than $100 billion this year on managing the world's data centers. And
with virtualization quickly becoming an IT buzzword in 2006, the
complexity and costs could increase.'"
