What is the primary purpose of a Deployment Server in Splunk?

To manage user access
To distribute configurations and apps
To index raw log data
To monitor system performance

The correct answer is: To distribute configurations and apps

The primary purpose of a Deployment Server in Splunk is to distribute configurations and apps. It acts as a central management point that helps administrators to streamline the process of deploying and updating configurations, applications, and add-ons across multiple Splunk instances, known as forwarders. This is particularly useful in large environments where managing numerous instances individually would be time-consuming and inefficient. By utilizing a Deployment Server, you ensure that all the forwarders are consistently configured and running the appropriate apps, which ultimately enhances the overall efficiency of your Splunk deployment.
