This diagram shows a Splunk SOAR (On-premises) Single Server topology

Architecture overview

This deployment topology is implemented with a single Splunk SOAR (On-premises) node. This architecture can be scaled up vertically to account for higher event ingestion or more active playbook runs.

The topology is suitable for one of the following situations:

  • You do not have any requirements to provide high-availability or automatic disaster recovery for your Splunk SOAR (On-premises) deployment
  • Your event ingestion is < 30,000 events per hour
  • You have less than 50 users accessing Splunk SOAR (On-premises)

Benefits

The primary benefits of this topology include the following:

  • Simple administration, performance automation and orchestration, and a fixed total cost of ownership (TCO)
  • Effective solution for organizations with a small number of users accessing the Splunk SOAR (On-premises) User Interface

Limitations

The primary limitations of this topology include the following:

  • No High Availability for ingestion and automation
  • Scalability limited by hardware capacity

Additional considerations

When using the topology, you may find the following information helpful:

  • This deployment must be vertically scaled to handle higher event rates
