In case of Splunk all departements have to connect to splunk and stuff ALL their logging into Splunk. With thousands of systems you can imagine that the amount of data is huge....huge and even huger... If you don't think very good about the purpose of all that information and what you want to do with it the risk exists that there is so many data which you can't even structure any more.... And that is exactly what's happening overhere. To much logging, to little thought about where they want to use it for...
The only one who is enjoying him or herself is Splunk, they are billing a lot of licenses (per gb) for data of which I dare to say is not even used at the moment... I do think that is mis-management....
So if you are tired of Steem you can always try to sell some shitty implementation of a product to some managers... Success guaranteed :)
