VMware asserts Log Insight, which is the product of a 2012 acquisition and competes with the market-leading Splunk Enterprise (analyzes log data and many other file types), can be deployed in minutes, is tightly integrated with VMware's vCenter Operations software, and natively supports the company's vSphere virtualization software.

- Friday, May 31, 11:52 AM Splunk (SPLK +2.3%) has turned positive as the sell-side gives a thumb-up to its FQ1 revenue beat and in-line guidance, given a tough spending environment.

On the earnings call, Splunk touted its growing ecosystem, noting there are 400+ apps and add-ons now available on its splunkbase site. International only made up 21% of FQ1 sales, and 132 $100K+ orders were recorded (up from 72 a year ago). Comment! [Tech, On the Move, Earnings]

- Monday, May 20, 2:25 PM Splunk's (SPLK +2.5%) addressable market is growing and its results should beat estimates, says Pac Crest in a bullish note that's giving shares a lift. The machine data software leader, which has been touting the ability of its products to analyze Web data in addition to corporate data, is now up 60% YTD. Its FQ1 report arrives on May 30. Comment! [Tech, On the Move]
- Friday, May 10, 6:47 AM Splunk (SPLK) "remains in the very early stages of a fertile growth story" including investing heavily in growth and hiring, which may mitigate its margin potential in the near term, FBR says in a bullish initiation note. "Nevertheless, we believe that from both a secular and product perspective, Splunk is in the right place at the right time and will begin to show positive operating margins on an annual basis with its red-hot growth rates over the coming years." Comment! [Quick Ideas, Tech]
- Tuesday, April 30, 2:20 PM Informatica (INFA -3%), Splunk (SPLK -1.9%), and Qlik (QLIK -3%), 3 names hyped as analytics/big data plays, slump in response to Microstrategy's (MSTR -11.1%) big Q1 miss, which includes a 24% Y/Y drop in produce license revenue. As is its custom, the business intelligence software vendor gives no reason for its miss, nor does it provide guidance or an earnings call. It is, however, happy to note its buyback program ($455M remaining) has been extended to April 2018. Microstrategy's numbers are overshadowing solid results from rival Actuate (BIRT +6.2%); the company posted 16% Y/Y Q1 license rev. growth, compared with nearly flat total rev. growth. Comment! [Tech, On the Move, Earnings]

Splunk mentioned on its FQ4 call it added over 400 customers during the quarter, and now has ~200 Fortune 500 companies as clients. Sullivan is banking on the growing use of Splunk's software to analyze Web/mobile data (today, its software is more frequently used to analyze enterprise data) to drive future growth. Comment! [Tech]
