Population Job Use case

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch

Dear All,

Currently I want to optimize the machine learning that I have, but I am still very confused about how to optimize the use of population jobs for my logs, is there a use case that I can use? and under what conditions does my data require this population job?

Thank you,

Regards,
Septia

Hi @Septianingrum.17,

Thanks for reaching out. Some examples of when you may want to use population jobs include when you have a large group of similar entries, looking for data behavior that's only abnormal about the larger dataset rather than in absolute terms, or when you have scalability concerns.

I've found our job type documentation helpful in the past as well.

I'm also interested in hearing more about your use and what you want to use anomaly detection for.

Best,

Jessica
