Splunk introduces badge-based Partnerverse programme
The new programme will feature a catalogue to help showcase partner capabilities and innovations to customers

Data platform provider Splunk has announced the launch of its new Splunk Partnerverse programme, a new initiative that it says will empower partners to expand technical expertise, differentiate offerings, and amplify customer success.
The programme has been designed to enable businesses to demonstrate their core competencies with a brand-new badge system. Splunk’s active partners – which include BlueVoyant, deepwatch, Orange Cyberdefense, and Tekstream – can now access three initial badges that highlight expertise in Cloud Migration, Zero Trust Services, and Authorized Learning excellence.
The full programme will then be broadly available in February 2022 and will support thousands of distributors, global system integrators, service providers, original equipment manufacturers, technology alliance partners, and VARs, Splunk said.
“The most successful companies have a strong data foundation to deliver secure and resilient systems, and are committed to unlocking innovation and driving growth by rapidly accelerating their cloud adoption,” explained Teresa Carlson, president and chief growth officer at Splunk.
“The Splunk Partnerverse Program helps customers identify and collaborate with the right partners faster and leverage proven solutions to reach their critical missions and outcomes in the cloud and underscores our continued commitment to our partner network.”
As part of the Partnerverse badging system, business earn different badges to help customers identify which partners have the suitable expertise for their needs. These badges will include Cloud Migration Services, Zero Trust Services, Observability, Security, Managed Service, System Integration, and Authorized Learning.
Additionally, the badging system offers a Cloud Migration Services Competency, featuring a Professional Services kit and the ability to configure customer deployments for Spunk Cloud.
Alongside that, Splunk also revealed that the new programme will offer a Partner Solutions Catalog to highlight partner capabilities and innovations globally. The firm says the feature will allow partners to reach the “widest audience possible” and highlight their portfolio of offerings.
John Maynard, CEO of cyber security services firm Adarma, said the program will tighten its long-standing partnership with Splunk even further.
“The new Partner Solutions Catalog is a game changer and will allow us to highlight all of our joint solutions – particularly our market-leading managed detection and response platform – to successfully engage with new and existing customers to proactively manage and prevent cyber threats,” he said.
