PanosJee | 3 years ago | on: Splunk IP suit against Cribl

Another funny tidbit:

> On March 24, 2017, a few months after his initial copying of Splunk’s source code, Mr. Sharp resigned from Splunk to co-found Cribl with Dritan Bitincka and Ledion Bitincka— both former software architects at Splunk.

Except that they didn't because initially the had created a company called diag.io that was focused on troubleshooting fault configurations.

I don't think Splunk claims will hold in court. As said running Wireguard would too just fine.

Mr. Sharp posted a derivation of Splunk’s proprietary and confidential S2S source code to his personal github webpage (a publicly accessible website for sharing source code). Mr. Sharp named this derived code “go-S2S.”

From the lawsuit:

Although Splunk provides HEC for third parties to use, Splunk maintains other aspects of its software as proprietary. One example of such proprietary software is the “S2S” protocol. S2S stands for “Splunk-to-Splunk,” and this is software that Splunk itself uses to send data to, or receive data from, Splunk Enterprise and other Splunk software and technologies. Splunk does not support use of S2S by third parties, does not publish S2S’s source code, and does not document S2S in a manner that facilitates third-party use of this protocol.

I am one of those people. There was a bonus for every patent granted. They were telling us that we need to big patent arsenal to fend off against IBM. It turned out that Splunk is IBM now.
