Which port is designated as the default KV store port in Splunk?

  1. 8191

  2. 8089

  3. 8000

  4. 8065

The correct answer is: 8191

The designated default port for the KV (Key-Value) store in Splunk is indeed 8191. The KV store is a powerful feature within Splunk that allows for the storage of semi-structured data in a NoSQL-like environment, providing the ability to manage and query this data efficiently. It is primarily used for storing user preferences, custom application data, or various configuration settings relevant to Splunk apps and add-ons. While other ports are used by Splunk for different functions, such as 8089 for the management interface and 8000 for the web interface, the KV store specifically operates on port 8191. Understanding the scope of each port's function is crucial for managing Splunk installations, especially when setting up configurations related to application development or integrations that utilize the KV store functionality.
