Machine Learning with the Elastic Stack

By: Rich Collier, Bahaaldine Azarmi

Overview of this book

Machine Learning with the Elastic Stack is a comprehensive overview of the embedded commercial features of anomaly detection and forecasting. The book starts with installing and setting up Elastic Stack. You will perform time series analysis on varied kinds of data, such as log files, network flows, application metrics, and financial data. As you progress through the chapters, you will deploy machine learning within the Elastic Stack for logging, security, and metrics. In the concluding chapters, you will see how machine learning jobs can be automatically distributed and managed across the Elasticsearch cluster and made resilient to failure. By the end of this book, you will understand the performance aspects of incorporating machine learning within the Elastic ecosystem and create anomaly detection jobs and view results from Kibana directly.

Single time series forecasting

Now that we have a base understanding of the logistical operation of the forecasting process, let's walk through an example of how to use Elastic ML for forecasting. We will start with a dataset that is a single time series.
