Single Use Case Options are intended for which customers?

• A. Newer customers or those with smaller environments and limited use cases
• B. Large enterprises with heavy use
• C. Governments only
• D. Education institutions only

Answer: (A)

Single Use Case Options are designed for customers who are just starting with Splunk or who have a smaller environment with a narrowly defined use case. This licensing path lowers entry barriers by offering a simpler setup, typically with limited data volume and features centered on one specific use case. It lets new or smaller customers evaluate value, deploy quickly, and scale later if they need broader use cases. For larger organizations with heavy usage, the need is usually for licenses that cover multiple use cases, greater data volumes, and more extensive features, so a single-use-case option wouldn’t meet their broader requirements. And while governments or education institutions can use these options, they’re not restricted to those sectors—the difference is in the scope of use cases and scale, not the customer type. If the use case expands beyond one area, a transition to a more flexible licensing model would be appropriate.
