=== Derivative Aggregation
|
|
|
|
A parent reducer 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:
|
|
|
|
[source,js]
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
{
|
|
"derivative": {
|
|
"buckets_path": "the_sum"
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
.`derivative` Parameters
|
|
|===
|
|
|Parameter Name |Description |Required |Default Value
|
|
|`buckets_path` |Path to the metric of interest (see <<bucket-path-syntax, `buckets_path` Syntax>> for more details |Required |
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
==== First Order Derivative
|
|
|
|
The following snippet calculates the derivative of the total monthly `sales`:
|
|
|
|
[source,js]
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
{
|
|
"aggs" : {
|
|
"sales_per_month" : {
|
|
"date_histogram" : {
|
|
"field" : "date",
|
|
"interval" : "month"
|
|
},
|
|
"aggs": {
|
|
"sales": {
|
|
"sum": {
|
|
"field": "price"
|
|
}
|
|
},
|
|
"sales_deriv": {
|
|
"derivative": {
|
|
"buckets_paths": "sales" <1>
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
<1> `bucket_paths` instructs this derivative aggregation to use the output of the `sales` aggregation for the derivative
|
|
|
|
And the following may be the response:
|
|
|
|

}
|
|
}
|
|
]
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
<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` f
|
|
|
|
==== Second Order Derivative
|
|
|
|
A second order derivative can be calculated by chaining the derivative reducer aggregation onto the result of another derivative
|
|
reducer aggregation as in the following example which will calculate both the first and the second order derivative of the total
|
|
monthly sales:

{
|
|
"aggs" : {
|
|
"sales_per_month" : {
|
|
"date_histogram" : {
|
|
"field" : "date",
|
|
"interval" : "month"
|
|
},
|
|
"aggs": {
|
|
"sales": {
|
|
"sum": {
|

"field": "price"
|
|
}
|
|
},
|

"sales_deriv": {
|
|
"derivative": {

"buckets_paths": "sales"

}

},
|
|
"sales_2nd_deriv": {
|
|
"derivative": {
|
|
"buckets_paths": "sales_deriv" <1>
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
<1> `bucket_paths` for the second derivative points to the name of the first derivative
|
|
|
|
