Cisco SK-APM-SN-PL-F-CAD Container Profiling Add-On

Add container profiling capability to a Splunk Observability deployment with the Standard Edition container add-on. This Cisco software offering is labeled for the FED environment and is intended to extend an existing observability service rather than provide a standalone hardware appliance. It focuses the entitlement on container profiling, keeping that function separate from the base observability service. Its scope is expressly container-oriented, not a general-purpose networking function. Use it where containerized workloads are already monitored through Splunk Observability and the deployment requires the profiling add-on identified as Standard Edition. The container add-on designation helps separate this purchase from broad platform subscriptions and from non-container profiling options. It is a software item, so rack space, power, ports, and physical mounting do not apply. It does not represent a switch, server, or appliance. Cisco SK-APM-SN-PL-F-CAD identifies this specific FED Standard Edition container profiling add-on. Within the Splunk Observability portfolio, the meaningful qualifiers are its FED designation, Standard Edition label, and container-focused add-on scope. Those qualifiers should match the existing Observability environment and the intended profiling requirement before the add-on is used.
