Anomaly detection algorithms
Elastic Cloud Serverless projects are autoscaled environments, fully managed by Elastic and available on Elastic Cloud. Availability This functionality is generally available and ready for production usage. Serverless interfaces and procedures might differ from classic Elastic Stack deployments. The Elastic Stack includes Elastic's core products such as Elasticsearch, Kibana, Logstash, and Beats. Availability This functionality is generally available and ready for production usage. Unless stated otherwise on the page, this functionality is available when your Elastic Stack is deployed on Elastic Cloud Hosted, Elastic Cloud Enterprise, Elastic Cloud on Kubernetes, and self-managed environments. This documentation corresponds to the latest patch available for each minor version. If you're not using the latest patch, check the release notes for changes.

The anomaly detection machine learning features use a combination of advanced mathematical techniques such as clustering, various types of time series decomposition, Bayesian distribution modeling, and correlation analysis. These analytics provide sophisticated real-time automated anomaly detection for time series data.
The machine learning analytics statistically model the time-based characteristics of your data by observing historical behavior and adapting to new data. The model represents a baseline of normal behavior and can therefore be used to determine how anomalous new events are.
Anomaly detection results are written for each bucket span. These results include scores that are aggregated in order to reduce noise and normalized in order to rank the most mathematically significant anomalies.
