India being one of the fastest emerging markets and the second largest world population abundantly generates and leverages Big Data, from optimizing travel websites for seasonal traffic to predicting election results. When Zee Entertainment came up with India's first Over-the-Top TV platform - DittoTV in 2012, Big Data was still taking baby steps in Indian market. The OTT platform needed a reliable and scalable analytics platform to manage data collection from several sources of diverse infrastructure components, and deliver real-time insights and responsive business metrics. SmartCirqls stepped in and took up the challenge. SmartCirqls uses Splunk to consolidate raw machine
data from the source & correlate across information silos, bringing a unified approach to data analysis.
Unifying Processes & People
SmartCirqls was incepted in 2012 by Siddharth Ugrankar with the goal to make machine data searchable and actionable to enterprises in India. Siddharth as the former CEO of bSmart, a bulk SMS platform, was evaluating solutions to provide end-to-end visibility across the IT infrastructure, when he came across Splunk. Realising the unmatched potential of the product, he foresaw the coming tide and founded SmartCirqls, partnering with the U.S. based Big Data analytics giant. Today, SmartCirqls is a pioneer in delivering Splunk for Operational & Business Intelligence and Machine data solutions.
