The first three dashboards accessed from the Cloud Monitoring Console > License Usage tab enable Splunk Cloud Platform administrators to monitor their Splunk Cloud Platform subscription entitlement and ensure they don't exceed their license limits.

To review all of your organization's subscription entitlements, see the Entitlements dashboard.

If your organization has an ingest-based subscription that measures by the amount of data ingested, see the Ingest dashboard.

If your organization has a workload-based subscription that measures by Splunk Virtual Compute (SVC) units, see the Workload dashboard.

For more detailed information about the different subscription types, see the Splunk Cloud Platform Service Description. Be sure to choose the correct service description version for your Splunk Cloud Platform deployment from the Version drop-down menu.

For more information about your organization's particular subscription entitlement, or to convert from an ingest-based subscription to a workload-based subscription, contact your Splunk account representative.

The last three dashboards accessed from the Cloud Monitoring Console > License Usage tab enable Splunk Cloud Platform administrators to monitor their Splunk Cloud Platform storage and usage entitlement. Splunk Cloud Platform retains data based on index settings that enable you to specify when data is to be deleted. Data retention capacity space in your Splunk Cloud Platform service is based on the volume of uncompressed data that you want to index on a daily basis.

Storage is based on your subscription type. You can also purchase additional data retention capacity. For more information, see the following information in the Splunk Cloud Platform Service Description:

• Storage
• Subscription types

For more information about creating and managing Splunk Cloud Platform indexes, see Manage Splunk Cloud Indexes in the Splunk Cloud Platform Admin Manual.
