You already learned how to create and customize basic visualizations in the previous chapter. Now, in this chapter, we will go through advanced visualizations that can be implemented in Splunk. You will learn how to implement advanced visualizations such as Sunburst, custom decoration, calendar heatmap, and force directed graphs. Many of these visualizations were introduced in the latest version of Splunk 6.3. These advanced visualizations can even be used by a non-technical audience to generate useful insight and derive business decisions.
In this chapter, we will cover the following topics:
Sunburst sequence
Geospatial visualization
Punchcard visualization
Calendar heatmap
Sankey diagram
Parallel coordinates
Force directed graph
Custom chart overlay
Custom decorations
