Founded by Splunk's former Worldwide Developer Evangelist.
The Ishango Bone is commonly recognized to be the oldest discovered artifact representing the storage, calculation and visualization of data. The company founder referred to this in a big data talk he gave in 2014 at QCON London, hence the name of this company. BaboonBones was set up to provide commercial support for all of our Splunk App offerings and to offer custom Splunk development services.
As the most downloaded and production installed developers in Splunk history , our App development record speaks for itself. There are numerous ways to build upon and extend the Splunk platform to take your data experience to the next level. As we wrote about in a Splunk blog, it really is a Developer's Smorgasboard. We'll work with you to understand your data and objectives and determine what is the best App or Add-on solution that we can build for you.
Contact us nowThere is more to developing on Splunk than just Apps and Add-ons, you can build any custom solution that integrates with the power of the Splunk data platform and the SPL language.A common approach to this is by leveraging Splunk's REST API and SDKs.For example, look at this innovative integration of Alexa and Splunk we developed to deliver a natural language voice interface to your data in Splunk that has been showcased in mainstage keynotes at AWS re:Invent, Splunk Conf and talked about on CNBC's Mad Money. Consider the unlimited possibilities that a Splunk based solution can deliver for you.

Monitoring of Java Virtual Machines with JMX v3.2.7"Monitoring of Java Virtual Machines with JMX" (formerly Splunk for JMX) can be used to poll local or remote JMX Management Servers running in Java Virtual Machines across your entire infrastructure and index MBean attributes, outputs from MBean operations and listen for MBean notifications.
JMS Messaging Modular Input v2.2.8This is a Splunk modular input add-on for polling message queues and topics via the JMS interface. JMS is simply a messaging API and is a convenient means by which to write 1 modular input that can talk to several different underlying messaging providers : MQSeries(Websphere MQ), ActiveMQ, TibcoEMS, HornetQ, RabbitMQ, Native JMS, Weblogic JMS, Sonic MQ etc..

Push Data to Cribl v1.0.9This is a Splunk Modular Alert used to export Splunk search results to Cribl.The search results are pushed to Cribl using the Cribl HTTPs Bulk API
Command Modular Input v1.5.8This is a Splunk Modular Input for executing commands and indexing the output. It is quite simply just a wrapper around whatever system commands/programs that you want to periodically execute and capture the output from ie: (top, ps, iostat, tshark, tcpdump etc...). It will work on all supported Splunk platforms.

Release Notes
All of our publicly available Splunkbase Apps are fully AppInspect passed for installing in your own hosted Splunk Enterprise environments or on your own hosted Splunk Forwarders and forwarding the collected data into Splunk Cloud.
If you need to install our publicly available Splunkbase Apps directly in a Splunk Cloud instance , then :
Some of our Apps are already Cloud vetted , so you are good to go.
Some of our Apps might have features not permissible in Splunk Cloud (ie: they open a network port to receive data) or it doesn't make sense to run the App in Splunk Cloud if the target data is within your corporate firewall , so the best practice is to run these Apps on your own hosted Splunk Forwarders and forward the collected data into Splunk Cloud.
Some of our Apps are designed out of the box to be completely generic to solve a multitude of data collection requirements and as such have features that go above and beyond the constraints of Cloud Vetting. So for these Apps , you can run these Apps on your own hosted Splunk Forwarders and forward the collected data into Splunk Cloud or we can provide custom private builds of any of our Apps tailored to your specific requirements and configuration , and these custom private builds can then be uploaded as your own private Splunk Cloud Apps.
Custom private builds are available to commercially supported customers on our Ultra plan.We also offer the option with our Development Team to perform ad-hoc custom private builds of any of our Apps to your own specifications.Please contact us for more information.
You can use any of our publicly available Splunkbase Apps to get data into Cribl.
The recommended approach is to install the App on your own hosted Splunk Heavy Forwarder to setup and run the App and then forward the collected data to Cribl.
Many apps we wrote were the original trail blazing innovations for getting data visibility into JVM environments and have been fundamental to driving Splunk's JVM data success, such as the JMX App, and they continue to be the standard bearers. We have also talked at multiple Splunk Conferences on the subject of Splunking the JVM.
The very popular JMS Messaging App is the standard for getting your enterprise messaging data from the likes of MQ and Tibco into Splunk. It is being used very heavily in production uses cases with blue chip Splunk customers for large data volumes and message throughput per day. There are also several other apps for various messaging technologies and have talked about this subject at several Splunk Conferences.
We know a thing or 2 about getting your IOT data into Splunk and many of our apps helped blaze the trail for Splunk's IOT success. We've also spoken on the global stage about getting your IOT data into Splunk and building IOT Apps.
There is more to big data than just textual content and huge amounts of value exist in binary data if you have the means to process it into Splunk.Many of our Apps are designed with a pluggable pre-processor architecture so you can capture text and binary data and preprocess it into an optimum format for Splunk. In particular, our Protocol Data Inputs App is being used very successfully for this purpose by many customers.
Our REST Modular Input has become the de facto standard for getting your HTTP and REST based data into Splunk. All API's are different and this App has been thoroughly battle tested in the field to get data into Splunk from numerous different API configurations.We have also provided many specific customizations of this app for customers and it has even formed the basis of many other successful Apps published on Splunkbase.
We were hands on involved in the creation of Splunk's SDKs and created the Java logging libraries that subsequently blazed the trail for other Splunk logging libraries for developers. This is all subject matter that we have also presented and coded live on stage at several Splunk Conferences. We've also worked with numerous developers over the years to build Splunk Apps for the Devops ecosystem and gave one of Splunk's first ever Devops talks at an industry developer conference.
