LogReduce

The LogReduce algorithm uses fuzzy logic to cluster messages together based on string and pattern similarity. Use the LogReduce button and operator to quickly assess activity patterns for things like a range of devices or traffic on a website.

The summarize operator has been renamed the logreduce operator, to match the LogReduce button on the Messages tab. Both operators will continue to work in search queries as synonyms for a limited time. We recommend that you rewrite saved queries replacing summarize with LogReduce.

In this section, we will introduce the following concepts:

📄️ LogReduce Operator

📄️ Detect Patterns with LogReduce

The LogReduce algorithm uses fuzzy logic and soft matching to group messages with similar structures and common repeated text strings into signatures, providing a quick investigative view, or snapshot, for the keywords or time range provided.

📄️ Influence the LogReduce Outcome

The algorithm used for the logreduce operator uses fuzzy logic and soft matching to group messages with similar structures and common repeated text strings into Signatures, providing a quick investigative view, or snapshot, for the keywords or time range provided. LogReduce data is based on the data available to the algorithm during the time range of your search.
