Reference host specifications for distributed deploymentsĭistributed deployments are designed to separate the index and search functionality into dedicated tiers that can be sized and scaled independently without disrupting the other tier. Once you've exceeded the ability of a single instance deployment to meet your search and data ingest load, review the distributed deployment models defined in SVA. If you are planning a single instance Splunk Enterprise installation and want additional headroom for search concurrency or more Splunk Apps, consider using the indexer mid-range or high-performance specifications described below. See Supported Operating Systems in the Installation Manual.


A single-instance represents an S1 architecture in SVA: This represents the minimum basic instance specifications for a production grade Splunk Enterprise deployment. Reference host specification for single-instance deployments The recommendations are based upon the Splunk Validated Architectures (SVA) white paper on. The reference hardware specification is a baseline for scoping and scaling the Splunk platform for your use.
