Co-located deployment of a data fabric service system

Abstract:

The capabilities of a data intake and query system can be improved by implementing the data fabric service (DFS) system in a co-located deployment with the data intake and query system. The DFS system can extend the capabilities of a data intake and query system by leveraging computing assets from anywhere in a big data ecosystem to collectively execute search queries on diverse data systems regardless of whether data stores are internal of the data intake and query system and/or external data stores that are communicatively coupled to the data intake and query system over a network.
