    Abstract: The disclosed embodiments provide a system that facilitates the processing of network data. During operation, the system provides a risk-identification mechanism for identifying a security risk from time-series event data generated from network packets captured by one or more remote capture agents distributed across a network. Next, the system provides a capture trigger for generating additional time-series event data from the network packets on the one or more remote capture agents based on the security risk, wherein the additional time-series event data includes one or more event attributes.

    Abstract: A system that displays a set of polygons is described. This system obtains a set of line segments that defines the set of polygons. The system forms a horizontal index that keeps track of where line segments vertically project onto a horizontal reference line and similarly forms a vertical index for horizontal projections onto a vertical reference line. The system obtains a clip rectangle that defines a view into the set of polygons and uses the horizontal and vertical indexes to determine intersections between borders of the clip rectangle and line segments in the set of line segments. Next, the system uses the determined intersections to clip polygons in the set of polygons that intersect the clip rectangle. Finally, the system transfers the clipped polygons, and also unclipped polygons that fit completely within the clip rectangle, to a display device that displays the view into the set of polygons.

    Abstract: Various methods and systems for facilitating network traffic monitoring in association with an application running on a client device are provided. In this regard, aspects of the invention facilitate monitoring network traffic being transmitted to and/or from a client device, such as a mobile device, so that network performance can be analyzed. In various implementations, packet headers of data packets are read to obtain or extract desired network metrics that indicate network performance. Packet headers are generally read to the extent necessary to identify various network data. As such, by avoiding examination of a packet payload and, in some cases, examination of the entire header, the efficiency of monitoring network traffic at a client device is improved.

    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention are directed to facilitating concurrent forecasting associating with multiple time series data sets. In accordance with aspects of the present disclosure, a request to perform a predictive analysis in association with multiple time series data sets is received. Thereafter, the request is parsed to identify each of the time series data sets to use in predictive analysis. For each time series data set, an object is initiated to perform the predictive analysis for the corresponding time series data set. Generally, the predictive analysis predicts expected outcomes based on the corresponding time series data set. Each object is concurrently executed to generate expected outcomes associated with the corresponding time series data set, and the expected outcomes associated with each of the corresponding time series data sets are provided for display.

    Abstract: A search request received at a computer of a search support system is processed by analyzing the received search request to identify request parameters and connecting to a system index of the search support system that is referenced in the request parameters. An external result provider (ERP) process is initiated that establishes communication between the search support system and a data source external to the search support system, for a virtual index referenced in the request parameters. Thus, the ERP process provides an interface between the search support system and external data sources, such as by third parties. The ERP process can operate in a streaming mode (providing real-time search results with minimal processing) and/or a reporting mode (providing results with a greater delay and processing extent) and can switch between modes. The search request results are received from the connected system indexes and the referenced virtual indexes.

    Abstract: An event limited field picker for a search user interface is described. In one or more implementations, a service may operate to collect and store data as events each of which includes a portion of the data correlated with a point in time. Clients may use a search user interface perform searches by input of search criteria. Responsive to receiving search criteria, the service may operate to apply a late binding schema to extract events that match the search criteria and provide search results for display via the search user interface. The search user interface exposes an event limited field picker operable to make selections of fields with respect to individual events in a view of the search results. In response to receiving an indication of a fields selected via the picker, visibility of selected fields may be updated to control which field and values are included in different views.

    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for providing a multi-component application, including a first and second component. A client device may be provisioned with the application in a manner that, from the point of view of an end user, is similar to access a single component application. A user may use a client device to attempt to access a second component to provide the application. The second component can instruct the client device to first obtain a first component from a different network location. The client device can obtain the first component and execute the first component to use the second component, thereby providing the multi-component application. Other than submission of an initial request to access the application, provisioning of the multi-component application may be programmatic and potentially invisible to an end user, thereby providing an experience similar to accessing a single component application.
