Hi,  
We intend to import data from our existing system and need to do the below for the integration with X-Pack.

e.g. Sample Text=Value Result

The above text need to be split into 3 categories.  
Cat-1 : Sample Text  
Cat-2: Value  
Cat-3: Result

I suppose the above splitting into three categories should be done with the pattern analyser..  
Eventually, we we need to do some more analytics using X-packs like aggregation of the derived/generated categories.

Appreciate any response on this  
Thanks

Not sure how this relates to xpack.

Anyway, you want to do that at index time I guess. May be use an ingest pipeline with a grok processor to split your text in 3 categories?
