  • Patent number: 12164565
    Abstract: Systems and methods are described for processing ingested data in an asynchronous manner as the data is being ingested to detect potential anomalies. For example, one or more streaming data processors can convert data as the data is ingested into a comparable data structure, determine whether the comparable data structure should be assigned to an existing data pattern or a new data pattern, and optionally update a characteristic of the data pattern to which the comparable data structure is assigned. The streaming data processor(s) can perform these operations automatically in real-time or in periodic batches. Once one or more comparable data structures have been assigned to one or more data patterns, the streaming data processor(s) can analyze the comparable data structures assigned to a particular data pattern to determine whether any of the comparable data structures appear to be anomalous.

  • Patent number: 11636128
    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for allowing a user to view query results associated with a time range that is different from a time range indicated by a query. For example, a user interface (UI) data manager can receive a request for a panel of a workbook with a query that identifies the first time range. The UI data manager can obtain the panel, including the query and query results, and cause display of a panel view corresponding to the panel. The displayed query results may not correspond to the same time range as the literal time range indicated by the query. Rather, the query results may be the query results generated during an earlier time range that corresponds to the last time the query was run.

  • Patent number: 11604799
    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for allowing a user to perform various actions in association with a panel. For example, a user interface (UI) data manager can cause display of, as part of a panel view associated with a panel, a user interface field that includes a query and a first display object that includes query results generated as a result of execution of the query. In response to a user input, the UI data manager can further cause display of a second display object that provides the user with a list of actions that can be performed in association with the panel. If a user selects an action, the UI data manager can perform the action and cause display of results of the action in the panel view. The UI data manager can further associate the results of the action with the panel corresponding to the panel view.

  • Patent number: 11216511
    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for allowing a user to iteratively build a query. For example, a user interface (UI) data manager can obtain a child query entered or selected by a user. The child query may be a child query to a parent query, such that execution of the child query relies on the query results of the parent query. The UI data manager can associate an identifier corresponding to the query results of the parent query with the child query, and cause a data intake and query system to execute the second query using the identifier. The UI data manager can then instruct a client browser to display the query results provided by the data intake and query system in a graphical user interface (GUI) in an area separate from an area that displays the query results of the parent query.

  • 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.
