Definition
Specific Offering Terms, Activity Based Pricing: Search Capacity provided by the ABP Products measures searches as defined in the Splunk Search Reference; searches used for Splunk Cloud operations and maintenance are excluded.
Counting rules
Each search deducts its equivalent value (Core Search unit price plus a proportional share of quoted Premium App prices) from the instance ABP Subscription Balance. A search scanning less than 10 GB counts as 1 Search, 10 GB to 100 GB as 5 Searches, and more than 100 GB as 25 Searches. Search metrics in the Cloud Monitoring Console may differ from the ABP definition.
Floors / minimums
Committed daily search volume is part of the annual ABP dollar commitment; usage more than 20% above the commitment may trigger optimisation or additional purchase.
