Overview of this book

Elastic Stack, previously known as the ELK stack, is a log analysis solution that helps users ingest, process, and analyze search data effectively. With the addition of machine learning, a key commercial feature, the Elastic Stack makes this process even more efficient. This updated second edition of Machine Learning with the Elastic Stack provides a comprehensive overview of Elastic Stack's machine learning features for both time series data analysis as well as for classification, regression, and outlier detection. The book starts by explaining machine learning concepts in an intuitive way. You'll then perform time series analysis on different types of data, such as log files, network flows, application metrics, and financial data. As you progress through the chapters, you'll deploy machine learning within Elastic Stack for logging, security, and metrics. Finally, you'll discover how data frame analysis opens up a whole new set of use cases that machine learning can help you with. By the end of this Elastic Stack book, you'll have hands-on machine learning and Elastic Stack experience, along with the knowledge you need to incorporate machine learning in your distributed search and data analysis platform.

Enabling Elastic ML features

The process for enabling Elastic ML features inside the Elastic Stack is slightly different if you are doing so within a self-managed cluster versus using the Elasticsearch Service (ESS) of Elastic Cloud. In short, on a self-managed cluster, the features of ML are enabled via a license key (either a commercial key or a trial key). In ESS, a dedicated ML node needs to be provisioned within the cluster in order to utilize Elastic ML. In the following sections, we will explain the details of how this is accomplished in both scenarios.

Enabling ML on a self-managed cluster

If you have a self-managed cluster that was created from the downloading of Elastic's default distributions of Elasticsearch and Kibana (available at elastic.co/downloads/), enabling Elastic ML features via a license key is very simple. Be sure to not use the Apache 2.0 licensed open source distributions that do not contain the X-Pack code base.
