Real-time alerts in Splunk run the search continuously in the background. Is this statement true or false?

  1. True

  2. False

The correct answer is: True

The statement is true. Real-time alerts in Splunk are designed to continuously run specified searches in the background. This allows Splunk to monitor events as they occur, providing near-instantaneous notifications when specific conditions or criteria are met. By executing searches in real-time, organizations can respond quickly to events that may require immediate attention, such as security incidents or operational issues. This capability is a powerful feature of Splunk, allowing users to stay informed and take action without the need to manually conduct searches at regular intervals.
