A Splunk job is a search process that is kicked off via a report, an alert, or a user action. A Splunk job is a child OS process manifested from the splunkd process, which is the main Splunk daemon. A Splunk job is subjected to some usage quota, such as memory, CPU, and disk space, which can be configured in the limits.conf file. A Splunk job is not a user-defined Splunk capability, as it is a core feature of the Splunk platform.
