What is the default app in Splunk Enterprise?

In Splunk Enterprise, the default app is Searching and Reporting. This app is the primary interface that users interact with to search for data, create reports, and visualize results. When users log into Splunk, they are automatically directed to this app, which provides essential functionalities such as running searches, creating dashboards, and generating alerts.

The importance of this app lies in its foundational role; it enables users to exploit the full potential of Splunk's powerful search capabilities, making it indispensable for analyzing the vast amounts of data that can be ingested. Other applications, such as Splunk Enterprise Security Suite or specialized security apps, extend the functionality of Splunk but are not the default app that users first encounter upon logging in.
