=== Derivative Aggregation
|
|
|
|
experimental[]
|
|
|
|
A parent pipeline aggregation which calculates the derivative of a specified metric in a parent histogram (or date_histogram)
|
|
aggregation. The specified metric must be numeric and the enclosing histogram must have `min_doc_count` set to `0` (default
|
|
for `histogram` aggregations).
|
|
|
|
==== Syntax
|
|
|
|
A `derivative` aggregation looks like this in isolation:
|
|
|
|

"derivative": {
|
|
"buckets_path": "the_sum"
|
|
}

.`derivative` Parameters
|
|
|===
|
|
|Parameter Name |Description |Required |Default Value
|
|
|`buckets_path` |The path to the buckets we wish to find the derivative for (see <<buckets-path-syntax>> for more
|
|
details) |Required |

|
|`gap_policy` |The policy to apply when gaps are found in the data (see <<gap-policy>> for more
|

details)|Optional |`skip`

|
<1> No derivative for the first bucket since we need at least 2 data points to calculate the derivative
|
|
<2> Derivative value units are implicitly defined by the `sales` aggregation and the parent histogram so in this case the units
|
|
would be $/month assuming the `price` field has units of $.
|
|
<3> The number of documents in the bucket are represented by the `doc_count`
|
|
|
|
==== Second Order Derivative
|
|
|
|
A second order derivative can be calculated by chaining the derivative pipeline aggregation onto the result of another derivative
|
|
pipeline aggregation as in the following example which will calculate both the first and the second order derivative of the total
|
|
monthly sales:

<1> No second derivative for the first two buckets since we need at least 2 data points from the first derivative to calculate the

second derivative

|
==== Units
|
|
|
|
The derivative aggregation allows the units of the derivative values to be specified. This returns an extra field in the response
|
|
`normalized_value` which reports the derivative value in the desired x-axis units. In the below example we calculate the derivative
|
|
of the total sales per month but ask for the derivative of the sales as in the units of sales per day:
