Interview #92 Mangesh Pimpalkhare, SVP and GM, Splunk Platform at Cisco

Mangesh Pimpalkhare, SVP and GM of Splunk Platform at Cisco, breaks down why agentic AI generates more telemetry than the systems it monitors, and why nobody can yet say when observing AI costs more than running it. He explains the decade spent preaching centralized data was always partial, since machine data never sat in one system, and that what broke was volume rather than architecture, pushing a whole category to abandon the ingestion pricing it ran on for 15 years. Mangesh also digs into why an agent acting on a bad signal is usually a context failure, not a data failure, since a model trained on everything still lacks up-to-the-second context, and why autonomy arrives on a sliding scale against governance as trust is earned. Finally, he argues control, not data, is the moat, since customers own their data and fragmentation only grows, leaving the advantage with whoever supplies the guardrails that stop agents doing the wrong thing.
