Appendix: Anomaly Detection Tips
As we wind down the content for this book, it occurred to us that there's still a plethora of good, bite-sized explanations, examples, and pieces of advice that didn't quite fit into sections of the other chapters. It therefore made sense to give them a home all to themselves here in the Appendix. Enjoy this potpourri of tips, tricks, and advice!
The following topics will be covered here in the Appendix:
- Understanding influencers in split versus non-split jobs
- Using one-sided functions to your advantage
- Ignoring time periods
- Using custom rules and filters to your advantage
- Anomaly detection job throughput considerations
- Avoiding the over-engineering of a use case
- Using anomaly detection on runtime fields
