Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention are directed to facilitating data model acceleration in association with an external data system. In accordance with aspects of the present disclosure, at a core engine, a search request associated with a data model is received. The data model generally designates one or more fields, from among a plurality of fields, that are of interest for subsequent searches. Thereafter, it is determined that an accelerated data model summary associated with the data model is stored at an external data system remote from the core engine that received the search request. The accelerated data model summary includes field values associated with the one or more fields designated in the data model. A search for the received search request is initiated using the accelerated data model summary at the external data. A set of search results relevant to the search request is obtained and provided to a user device for display to a user.

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: Techniques and mechanisms are disclosed to optimize the size of index files to improve use of storage space available to indexers and other components of a data intake and query system. Index files of a data intake and query system may include, among other data, a keyword portion containing mappings between keywords and location references to event data containing the keywords. Optimizing an amount of storage space used by index files may include removing, modifying and/or recreating various components of index files in response to detecting one or more storage conditions related to the event data indexed by the index files. The optimization of index files generally may attempt to manage a tradeoff between an efficiency with which search requests can be processed using the index files and an amount of storage space occupied by the index files.

Abstract: A method and system for managing searches of a data set that is partitioned based on a plurality of events. A structure of a search query may be analyzed to determine if logical computational actions performed on the data set is reducible. Data in each partition is analyzed to determine if at least a portion of the data in the partition is reducible. In response to a subsequent or reoccurring search request, intermediate summaries of reducible data and reducible search computations may be aggregated for each partition. Next, a search result may be generated based on at least one of the aggregated intermediate summaries, the aggregated reducible search computations, and a query of adhoc non-reducible data arranged in at least one of the plurality of partitions for the data set.

Abstract: Raw data in distributed servers is divided into groups of data called buckets containing raw data that have timestamps that fall within a specific time range. When a bucket becomes inactive a server can archive the bucket to an external storage system. The external storage system containing archived data may be specified in a search query. Archived data from the external storage system is obtained, processed, and a search performed on the processed archived data using the search query.

Abstract: In embodiments, a computer-implemented method may entail receiving a search request. A first data store and a second data store, that contains data archived from the first data store, may be identified. Data from the first data store may remain available in the first data store for a limited period of time once archived to the second data store. The first data store storing data in a first format and the second data store storing data in a second format, the first format and the second format being different from one another. Determining that a subset of data that has been archived into the second data store and is to be searched as part of the search request is still available from the first data store, and executing the search request on the subset of data utilizing the first data store. Additional embodiments are described and/or claimed.
