  • Publication number: 20210149912
    Abstract: Systems and methods include causing presentation of a first cluster in association with an event of the first cluster, the first cluster from a first set of clusters of events. Each event includes a time stamp and event data. Based on the presentation of the first cluster, an extraction rule corresponding to the event of the first cluster is received from a user. Similarities in the event data between the events are determined based on the received extraction rule. The events are grouped into a second set of clusters based on the determined similarities. Presentation is caused of a second cluster in association with an event of the second cluster, where the second cluster is from the second set of clusters.

  • Patent number: 10997190
    Abstract: A modular visualization framework registers definitions for a variety of visualization types. The definitions are tagged with visualization characteristics. During a working session, likely interactive, a user identifies a search query used to produce data to be visualized. The working context, including the search query and data produced by its execution, is tagged for its visualization characteristics. Information about the working context, including its visualization characteristics, is then used to produce a customized list of candidates suited for the working context from which the user may select a visualization type.

  • Patent number: 10942946
    Abstract: Machine data of an operating environment is conveyed by a network to a data intake and query system (DIQS) which reflects the machine data as timestamped entries of a field-searchable datastore. Monitoring functionality may search the machine data to identify notable event instances. A notable event processing system correlates the notable event instance to one or more triaging models which are executed against the notable event to produce a modeled result. Information of the received notable event and the modeled results are combined into an enhanced representation of a notable event instance. The enhanced representation conditions downstream processing to automatically perform or assist triaging of notable event instances to optimize application of computing resources to highest priority conditions in the operating environment.

  • Patent number: 10942960
    Abstract: Network connections are established between machines of an operating environment to be monitored and a server group of a data intake and query system (DIQS). Data reflecting machine and component operations of the environment is conveyed via the network to the DIQS where it is reflected as timestamped entries in a field-searchable datastore. Monitoring components may search the datastore and identify and record instances of notable events. Triaging models are selectively applied against the notable event instances to produce an enhanced notable event instance representation with modeled results effective to automatically perform or assist in triaging the notable events so they are dispatched in an optimal, effective, and efficient, manner.

  • Patent number: 10936643
    Abstract: Machine data reflecting operation of a monitored system is ingested and made available for search by a data intake and query system (DIQS). Ingested data includes log data entries produced by an application that represent low-level instances of user interface or interaction events. Inference processing generates a new collection of data instances that each identifies a higher-level task performed by a user in a sequence of the low-level events without regard to any explicit task affiliation data component of the low-level instances. Information for the task may include a measure of confidence that each low-level event of the sequence is properly associated with the task. Tasks of the new collection may be advantageously visualized and included in downstream processing.

  • Publication number: 20210037037
    Abstract: In some implementations, sequences of time series values determined from machine data are obtained. Each sequence corresponds to a respective time series. A plurality of predictive models is generated for a first time series from the sequences of time series values. Each predictive model is to generate predicted values associated with the first time series using values of a second time series. For each of the plurality of predictive models, an error is determined between the corresponding predicted values and values associated with the first time series. A predictive model is selected for anomaly detection based on the determined error of the predictive model. Transmission is caused of an indication of an anomaly detected using the selected predictive model.

  • Patent number: 10776719
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for providing adaptive thresholding technology for Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) that are updated using training data. Adaptive thresholding technology may automatically assign new values or adjust existing values for one or more thresholds of one or more time policies. Assigning threshold values using adaptive thresholding may involve identifying training data (e.g., historical data, simulated data, or example data) for the time frames and analyzing the training data to identify variations within the data (e.g., patterns, distributions, trends). A threshold value may be determined based on the variations and may be assigned to one or more of the thresholds without additional user intervention.

  • Patent number: 10592093
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for anomaly detection. A search query can be executed over a period of time to produce values for a key performance indicator (KPI), the search query defining the KPI and deriving a value indicative of the performance of a service at a point in time or during a period of time, the value derived from machine data pertaining to one or more entities that provide the service. A graphical user interface (GUI) enabling a user to indicate a sensitivity setting can be displayed. A user input indicating the sensitivity setting can be received via the GUI. Zero or more of the values as anomalies can be identified in consideration of the sensitivity setting indicated by the user input. A GUI including information related to the values identified as anomalies can be caused to be displayed.

  • Publication number: 20200012966
    Abstract: Disclosed is a technique that can be performed by an electronic device. The electronic device can generate time-stamped events, extract training data from the time-stamped events, and sending the training data over a network to a remote computer. The electronic device can receive model data generated by the remote computer from the training data by use of a machine learning process, update a local model of the electronic device based on the received model data, and generate an output by processing locally sourced data of the electronic device with the updated local model.

  • Patent number: 10503348
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for providing a graphical user interface (GUI) for displaying and configuring adaptive or static thresholds for Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). The GUI may include one or more presentation schedules that may display threshold information associated with time policies. Each presentation schedule may include multiple time slots and span a portion of one or more time cycles. Some of the time slots may be associated with a specific time policy and may have a unifying appearance that distinguishes the time slots from timeslots associated with other time policies. The presentation schedules may arrange the time slots in a time grid arrangement (e.g., calendar grid view) or a graph arrangement with depictions (e.g., points, lines) that may illustrate KPI values and threshold markers that may illustrate the threshold values.
