Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure involve systems and methods for summarizing large amounts of data over time into one or more data layers. The systems and methods provide for storing data from a large data feed, which may include machine-sourced and human-sourced information, into one or more layers that are defined by layer parameters. A user of an interface may provide various parameters that define the portion or portions of the raw data feed to be included in the layer. With the received parameters, the system may analyze the raw data feed as it is received at the monitoring or collecting system to identify instances of data that match the received parameters. Through the system, data from a large raw data feed is searched and made available to a network administrator for easier management of the network without consuming vast network resources and administrator time.
