In Splunk IT Service Intelligence (ITSI), when using multiple event management policies, it is important to understand that policy processing is applied in a defined order. This order is crucial because it determines how events are processed and aggregated, and which rules are applied to events first. The order of policies can be customized, allowing administrators to prioritize certain policies over others based on the specific needs and operational logic of their IT environment. This feature provides flexibility in event management, enabling more precise control over event processing and ensuring that the most critical events are handled according to the desired precedence. This structured approach to policy processing helps in maintaining the efficiency and effectiveness of event management within ITSI.
