Abstract:
An automatic service monitor in an information technology environment has its operation controlled by information that, in part, define entities that perform services and define key performance indicators (KPIs) that indicate measures of performance of the services. KPIs are defined in terms of search queries applied against machine data by or about the entities that perform the services. The search query aspects of multiple KPI definitions may be tied to a shared base search. Implementation of the shared base search may permit improved performance of the service monitor and may permit a reduction in administrative burden.
