Coming soon to AWS Marketplace as a fixed-scope Professional Services offer.

Most teams get Cribl Stream running but stall on the last mile — routing the right sources, reducing what doesn’t belong in Splunk, and normalizing fields to the Common Information Model so the data actually drives detections and dashboards. That last mile is where Arcus Data lives.

What you get

🚀
Production pipeline
A Cribl Stream pipeline stood up and running on your own AWS account.
📡
Up to 5 sources, CIM-ready
Priority sources routed, reduced, and CIM-normalized into Splunk.
Validated against real data
Routing, reduction, and field-extraction logic proven on your live traffic.
🤝
Dedicated go-live support
A block of hands-on support across the full cutover window.
📚
Handoff package
Pipeline config export, source-to-destination map, and a short runbook.

Reduction without regret — validated against your Splunk apps

Cutting volume shouldn’t quietly break a dashboard or stop an alert from firing. As part of the QuickStart we run the Arcus Data Quality Pack in-line, so every event is checked before it lands in Splunk — and you can see exactly what survived.

187
CIM-standard field checks
68
sourcetypes covered
28
Splunk TAs validated

Every event is validated against 187 CIM-standard field checks spanning 68 sourcetypes and 28 Splunk TAs — so volume reduction never silently breaks the dashboards, correlation searches, and data models your Splunk apps already depend on. When a field a TA needs goes missing, you see it, with the likely cause, on the companion dashboard.

The Arcus Data Quality Scorecard — live field-survival, quality, and PII metrics, included with the QuickStart.

How it runs — about 2–3 weeks

Step 1
Deploy
Stand up Cribl Stream on your AWS account and connect to your destination.
Step 2
Route & normalize
Route up to five sources, reduce noise, and map fields to the CIM.
Step 3
Go live
Cut over with dedicated support, then hand off config and runbook.

What you’ll need

An existing Cribl Stream entitlement (BYOL or Cribl.Cloud)
AWS account access / an IAM role scoped for Arcus to deploy
A named destination (Splunk index/HEC or other) and a prioritized source list
A technical point of contact available during go-live

This is a fixed-scope engagement at a published price. Need more sources, custom content, or ongoing operation? We’ll scope that as a private offer.
