In Case You Missed It: 2026 Splunkie Award Winners Announced at .conf26

.conf & .conf Go Amanda Crocker

That’s a wrap on the Opening Keynote at .conf26 — and what better way to celebrate our incredible customers than with one of our favorite moments of the year: the Splunkie Awards!

Every year, the people nominated for Splunkies showcase what’s possible with Splunk. They’re innovating, solving big challenges, driving transformation, and making their organizations more resilient — all while putting Splunk to work in powerful ways.

We’re proud to call them customers, and even prouder to celebrate what they’re accomplishing.

This year’s Splunkie Awards were presented by two Splunk leaders: Angela Wells, Senior Director of Customer Advocacy and Executive Customer Experience, and Cory Minton, Global Field CTO.

And now, the moment you’ve been waiting for... meet your 2026 Splunkie Award winners!

To all of this year’s finalists and winners: congratulations! Your curiosity, persistence, creativity, and passion are what make the Splunk community so special. You’re not just solving today’s challenges — you’re helping shape what’s possible next. And we can’t wait to see what you do from here.

Want to be in the spotlight next year? Nominations for the 2027 Splunkie Awards will open next spring via social media, Splunk Blogs, and conf.splunk.com.
