Where to focus: Six troubleshooting sections, from Splunk Troubleshooting Methods through to Deployment Problems, are 30% of the paper between them. Resource Planning and Indexer Cluster Management are the heaviest single sections at 7% each.

Frequently asked questions

How much does the Splunk Enterprise Certified Architect exam cost?

Splunk lists the exam at $130 USD per exam attempt and delivers it through its testing partner Pearson VUE, at a test centre or with an online proctor. A retake costs the same $130 again.

How long is the exam and how many questions does it have?

Splunk publishes 85 multiple choice questions in 90 minutes. Splunk notes on the test blueprint that the 90 minutes include three minutes to review the exam agreement, so the working time is 87.

What is the passing score?

Splunk publishes no passing score for this exam, and no exam code either. It states the question count, the time limit and the section weightings on its test blueprint and stops there, so any percentage you see quoted elsewhere is somebody's estimate rather than Splunk's number.

What do I need before I can sit it?

Splunk lists the prerequisite as: Splunk Core Certified Power User and Splunk Enterprise Certified Admin, plus four named courses.
