In the previous blog in our root cause analysis with logs series, we explored how to analyze logs in Elastic Observability with Elastic’s anomaly detection and log categorization capabilities. Elastic’s platform enables you to get started on machine learning (ML) quickly. You don’t need to have a data science team or design a system architecture. Additionally, there’s no need to move data to a third-party framework for model training.
