Patent attributes
Data enrichment and augmentation is disclosed. Machine data comprising at least one of a log message and a metrics data point is received. The received machine data comprises an identifier of an instance of a virtual machine. Based at least in part on the identifier of the instance of the virtual machine, a query for tags associated with the instance of the virtual machine is performed. At least one key-value pair is generated based at least in part on tags received in response to the query performed based at least in part on the identifier of the instance of the virtual machine. The received machine data is augmented with the at least one key-value pair generated based at least in part on the tags received in response to the query based at least in part on the identifier of the instance of the virtual machine.
