Abstract:
The disclosed embodiments relate to a system that updates a context that facilitates evaluating qualitative search terms for an attribute during query processing. During operation, the system extracts a value for the attribute from each data item in a set of data items. Next, the system updates the context based on the extracted attribute values, wherein the context includes a concept-mapping for one or more qualitative search terms applied to the attribute, and wherein each concept-mapping associates a given attribute value with a numerical compatibility index that indicates a compatibility between the given attribute value and a corresponding qualitative search term.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for assigning scores to objects based on evaluating triggering conditions applied to datasets produced by search queries in data aggregation and analysis systems. An example method may comprise: executing, by one or more processing devices, a search query to produce a dataset comprising one or more data items derived from source data; and responsive to determining that at least a portion of the dataset satisfies a triggering condition, modifying a score assigned to an object to which the portion of the dataset pertains.
Abstract:
A first feature (e.g., chart or table) includes a reference to a dynamic pointer. Independently, the pointer is defined to point to a second feature (e.g., a query). The first feature is automatically updated to reflect a current value of the second feature. The reference to the pointer and pointer definition are recorded in a central registry, and changes to the pointer or second feature automatically cause the first feature to be updated to reflect the change. A mapping between features can be generated using the registry and can identify interrelationships to a developer. Further, changes in the registry can be tracked, such that a developer can view changes pertaining to a particular time period and/or feature of interest (e.g., corresponding to an operation problem).
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus consistent with the invention provide the ability to search and present time series data based on searches. Time series data are sequences of time stamped records occurring in one or more usually continuous streams, representing some type of activity. In one embodiment, time series data is organized into discrete events with normalized time stamps and the events are indexed by time and keyword. A search is received and relevant event information is retrieved based in whole or in part on the time indexing mechanism, keyword indexing mechanism, or statistical indices calculated at the time of the search.
Abstract:
Embodiments include generating data models that may give semantic meaning for unstructured or structured data that may include data generated and/or received by search engines, including a time series engine. A method includes generating a data model for data stored in a repository. Generating the data model includes generating an initial query string, executing the initial query string on the data, generating an initial result set based on the initial query string being executed on the data, determining one or more candidate fields from one or results of the initial result set, generating a candidate data model based on the one or more candidate fields, iteratively modifying the candidate data model until the candidate data model models the data, and using the candidate data model as the data model.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus consistent with the invention provide the ability to organize and build understandings of machine data generated by a variety of information-processing environments. Machine data is a product of information-processing systems (e.g., activity logs, configuration files, messages, database records) and represents the evidence of particular events that have taken place and been recorded in raw data format. In one embodiment, machine data is turned into a machine data web by organizing machine data into events and then linking events together.
Abstract:
The disclosed embodiments provide a system that facilitates the processing of network data. During operation, the system causes for display a graphical user interface (GUI) for obtaining configuration information for configuring the generation of time-series event data from network packets captured by one or more remote capture agents. Next, the system causes for display, in the GUI, a first set of user-interface elements comprising event stream information for one or more ephemeral event streams used to temporarily generate the time-series event data from the network packets. The system then causes for display, in the GUI, a mechanism for navigating between the event stream information and creation information for one or more creators of the one or more ephemeral event streams.
Abstract:
A computer system determines if events in a machine data store satisfy event selection criteria, the event selection criteria including a first field-value pair. To determine if one of the events satisfies the event selection criteria, the computer system compares the first field-value pair of the event selection criteria with a second field-value pair from an entity definition associated with the event by using a third field-value pair from data corresponding to the event in the machine data store.
Abstract:
A computer-implemented method, system, and computer-readable media are disclosed herein. In embodiments, the computer-implemented method may entail receiving, by a data service, live data associated with an entity. The entity may be, for example, a customer of the data service. The method may further include determining that a dual-queue node assigned to the entity is uninstantiated on the data service. As a result, a dual-queue node associated with the entity may be instantiated on the data service. The dual-queue node may be instantiated by initializing a live data queue, of the dual-queue node, in which to place the live data for processing and a stale data queue, of the dual-queue node, in which to store a persistent backup of the live data. The method may then route the live data to the dual-queue node. The dual-queue node may then process the live data. Additional embodiments are described and/or claimed.
