1 About Oracle Log Analytics Search

Oracle Log Analytics enables you to filter through and analyze vast amounts of log data across your enterprise databases, through a single, unified, and customizable display that’s easy to read and navigate. Use the in-built Search feature to filter through all your available log data and return specific log entries.

Oracle Log Analytics Search helps you drill down to specific log entries, enabling focussed analysis and monitoring across your enterprise. Use the Oracle Log Analytics query language to formulate your Search queries, which will retrieve log entries specific to the problem you are troubleshooting.

The Oracle Log Analytics query language enables you to:

• Filter and explore all available log data

• Perform root cause analysis

• Run statistical analysis on selected entities

• Generate reports

• Save search queries for later use

• Retrieve saved searches to build dashboards

You can construct your Search query by either dragging elements from the Field panel and dropping them in the appropriate sections in the Visualize column, or by directly entering your query in the Search field.
