Machine Learning with the Elastic Stack

This is the code repository for Machine Learning with the Elastic Stack, published by Packt.

Expert techniques to integrate machine learning with distributed search and analytics

What is this book about?

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.

This book covers the following exciting features:

Install the Elastic Stack to use machine learning features
Understand how Elastic machine learning is used to detect a variety of anomaly types
Apply effective anomaly detection to IT operations and security analytics
Leverage the output of Elastic machine learning in custom views, dashboards, and proactive alerting
Combine your created jobs to correlate anomalies of different layers of infrastructure
