Discussion topics

Item	Presenter	Notes
Splunk alternative - ELK stack	Alec Akin (Unlicensed) Richard Ji	ELK (Elasticsearch, Logstash, Kibana) Open source, free Wealth of information for reference Neither ELK nor splunk do particularly well with long term data storage; will still need some form of data lake solution We’ve been considering splunk as a springboard in order to transition into something more flexible and maintainable. Splunk resolves: Immediacy Security Outsource maintenance and high availability for the most part
Planning	Eddie Brown (Unlicensed)	Still working with A&P to continue process Once we’re unblocked, where does the money need to go? Splunk ???
Interim work		Alec has a small, personal Splunk instance we can work off of as we wait for incorp/501c3 Could be a good time to spike out some learnings for outstanding problems whether we use splunk or not (long term data storage, exposing API for public use, determine how to validate data integrity, serving up data back to the public for free)
Accuracy of PDAP data arch diagram and data ingestion diagram		Still fairly accurate
