Which license is required for a deployment server?

  1. Free License

  2. Enterprise License

  3. Trial License

  4. Developer License

The correct answer is: Enterprise License

The deployment server in Splunk is a key component designed to manage configuration and content deployment across multiple Splunk instances, particularly in larger, distributed environments. An Enterprise License is required for a deployment server because it encompasses the necessary functionalities and support for advanced Splunk features such as data management, user access controls, and performance optimization that are essential for the deployment server’s role in orchestrating and maintaining a scalable Splunk environment. Other license types, such as the Free License, Trial License, and Developer License, do not provide the full range of features and capabilities necessary to operate a deployment server effectively. The Free License has limitations on data indexing and user access, the Trial License is only temporary and meant for testing, and the Developer License is typically restricted to development and non-production use. Therefore, an Enterprise License is the only option that fully supports the deployment server's operational requirements within Splunk.
