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.

Ignoring time periods

Often, people ask how they can get ML to ignore the fact that a certain event has occurred. Perhaps it was an expected maintenance window, or perhaps something was broken within the data ingest pipeline and data was lost for a few moments. There are a few ways that you can get ML to ignore time periods, and for distinction, we'll separate them into two groups:

  • A known, upcoming window of time
  • An unexpected window of time that is discovered only after the fact

To illustrate things, we'll use a single-metric count job (from Figure A.1) on the farequote dataset that has an anomaly on the date of February 9th:

Figure A.10 – An analysis on the farequote dataset with an anomaly we'd like to ignore

Now, let's explore the ways we can ignore the anomaly on February 9th using different situations.

Ignoring an upcoming (known) window of time

Two methods can be used to ignore an upcoming window of...
