  • Patent number: 11106681
    Abstract: Messages of a first data stream may be accessed from an ingestion buffer in communication with a streaming data processor to receive data from the first data stream. At the streaming data processor and using an inference model, a sourcetype associated with one or more messages from the first data stream may be determined. The one or more messages may include a portion of machine data. Using the streaming data processor, a second data stream may be generated from the first data stream. The second data stream may include a subset of messages from the first data stream. A message of the subset of messages may be included in the second data stream based on a condition associated with the sourcetype for the message. At least one processing operation may be performed on at least one of the subset of messages from the second data stream.

  • Patent number: 11100172
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention are directed to identifying and providing related data field sets. In one embodiment, a first portion of a graphical user interface (GUI) configured to receive a search query is displayed. The GUI enables user interaction to specify a source type in association with the search query. In accordance with a first source type specified in the search query, a first field set associated with the first source type is identified as related to a second field set associated with a second source type. A second portion of the GUI is displayed that includes a relationship indication that indicates the first field set associated with the first source type is related to the second field set associated with a second source type. Further, a third portion of the GUI is displayed that includes an explanation or recommendation associated with the relationship indication.

  • Publication number: 20210200755
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention are directed to identifying related data, in particular, data associated with different source types. In embodiments, a first source type related to a second source type associated with a search query is identified. Field set pairs are identified from a first data set associated with the first source type and a second data set associated with the second source type. Each field set pair can include one field set associated with the first source type and another field set associated with the second source type. For each field set pair, an extent of similarity is determined between the corresponding field sets. Based on the extent of similarities between the corresponding field sets, at least one pair of related field sets is identified. An indication of the at least one pair of related field sets is provided, for example, for presentation to a user.

  • Publication number: 20210110062
    Abstract: Implementations include receiving a user provided example value of personally identifiable information (PII). Occurrences of the received example value are automatically identified in a dataset of events, wherein each occurrence is identified in a portion of raw machine data of a respective event of the events. For each occurrence of the identified occurrences, an extraction rule is generated, which defines a pattern of the occurrence of the example value and is executable to identify PII values in portions of raw machine data of the events using the pattern. Values of the PII are identified in a set of events using a set of extraction rules comprising the extraction rule of a plurality of the occurrences.

  • Publication number: 20200320145
    Abstract: Operational machine components of an information technology (IT) or other microprocessor- or microcontroller-permeated environment generate disparate forms of machine data. Network connections are established between these components and processors of an automatic data intake and query system (DIQS). The DIQS conducts network transactions on a periodic and/or continuous basis with the machine components to receive the disparate data and ingest certain of the data as measurement entries of a DIQS metrics datastore that is searchable for DIQS query processing. The DIQS may receive search queries to process against the received and ingested data via an exposed network interface. In one example embodiment, a query building component conducts a user interface using a network attached client device. The query building component may elicit search criteria via the user interface using a natural language interface, construct a proper query therefrom, and present new information based on results returned from the DIQS.
