Automated data-generation for event-based system

Abstract:

Described herein is a technology that facilitates the production of and the use of automated datagens for event-based. A datagen (i.e., data-generator or data generation system) is a component, module, or subsystem of computer systems that searches, monitors, and analyzes machine data. A datagen produces events that are further processed in various ways for subsequent use (such as searching, monitoring, and analysis).
