OpenSearch Anomaly Detection

The OpenSearch Anomaly Detection plugin enables you to leverage Machine Learning based algorithms to automatically detect anomalies as your log data is ingested. Combined with Alerting, you can monitor your data in near real time and automatically send alert notifications . With an intuitive Kibana interface and a powerful API, it is easy to set up, tune, and monitor your anomaly detectors.

Highlights

Anomaly detection is using Random Cut Forest (RCF) algorithm for detecting anomalous data points.

Anomaly detections run a scheduled job based on job-scheduler.

You should use anomaly detection plugin with the same version of OpenSearch Alerting plugin. You can also create a monitor based on the anomaly detector. A scheduled monitor run checks the anomaly detection results regularly and collects anomalies to trigger alerts based on custom trigger conditions.

Current Limitations

  • We will continuously add new unit test cases, but we don't have 100% unit test coverage for now. This is a great area for developers from the community to contribute and help improve test coverage.
  • Please see documentation links and GitHub issues for other details.

Documentation

Please see our documentation.

Setup

  1. Checkout source code of this package from Github repo.
  2. Launch Intellij IDEA, Choose Import Project and select the settings.gradle file in the root of this package.
  3. To build from command line set JAVA_HOME to point to a JDK 14 before running ./gradlew
  • Unix System
    • export JAVA_HOME=jdk-install-dir: Replace jdk-install-dir by the JAVA_HOME directory of your system.
    • export PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH
  • Windows System
    • Find My Computers from file directory, right click and select properties.
    • Select the Advanced tab, select Environment variables.
    • Edit JAVA_HOME to path of where JDK software is installed.

Build

This package uses the Gradle build system. Gradle comes with excellent documentation that should be your first stop when trying to figure out how to operate or modify the build. we also use the Elastic build tools for Gradle. These tools are idiosyncratic and don't always follow the conventions and instructions for building regular Java code using Gradle. Not everything in this package will work the way it's described in the Gradle documentation. If you encounter such a situation, the Elastic build tools source code is your best bet for figuring out what's going on.

Currently we just put RCF jar in lib as dependency. Plan to publish to Maven and we can import it later. Before publishing to Maven, you can still build this package directly and find source code in RCF Github package.

Building from the command line

  1. ./gradlew build builds and tests
  2. ./gradlew :run launches a single node cluster with the AD (and job-scheduler) plugin installed
  3. ./gradlew :integTest launches a single node cluster with the AD (and job-scheduler) plugin installed and runs all integration tests except security
  4. ./gradlew :integTest --tests="**.test execute foo" runs a single integration test class or method
  5. ./gradlew integTest -Dtests.rest.cluster=localhost:9200 -Dtests.cluster=localhost:9200 -Dtests.clustername="docker-cluster" -Dhttps=true -Duser=admin -Dpassword=admin launches integration tests against a local cluster and run tests with security
  6. ./gradlew spotlessApply formats code. And/or import formatting rules in .eclipseformat.xml with IDE.

When launching a cluster using one of the above commands logs are placed in /build/cluster/run node0/elasticsearch-<version>/logs. Though the logs are teed to the console, in practices it's best to check the actual log file.

Building from the IDE

Currently, the only IDE we support is IntelliJ IDEA. It's free, it's open source, it works. The gradle tasks above can also be launched from IntelliJ's Gradle toolbar and the extra parameters can be passed in via the Launch Configurations VM arguments.

Debugging

Sometimes it's useful to attach a debugger to either the ES cluster or the integ tests to see what's going on. When running unit tests you can just hit 'Debug' from the IDE's gutter to debug the tests. To debug code running in an actual server run:

./gradlew :integTest --debug-jvm # to start a cluster and run integ tests
OR
./gradlew :run --debug-jvm # to just start a cluster that can be debugged

The ES server JVM will launch suspended and wait for a debugger to attach to localhost:8000 before starting the ES server.

To debug code running in an integ test (which exercises the server from a separate JVM) run:

./gradlew -Dtest.debug :integTest

The test runner JVM will start suspended and wait for a debugger to attach to localhost:5005 before running the tests.

Advanced: Launching multi node clusters locally

Sometimes you need to launch a cluster with more than one OpenSearch server process.

You can do this by running ./gradlew run -PnumNodes=<numberOfNodesYouWant>

You can also debug a multi-node cluster, by using a combination of above multi-node and debug steps. But, you must set up debugger configurations to listen on each port starting from 5005 and increasing by 1 for each node.
