Oh, I totally get that, yes.  I just think it's the wrong way to solve
the problem.  It's a Band-Aid approach.

The better way to solve the problem would be to come up with some kind
of resume-job-from-checkpoint functionality, but that of course would be
a fairly major project.

All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable.
Why? It contains a definitive record of application performance, security 
threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this data and makes 
sense of it. IT sense. And common sense.
