Problem 1 What value would aggregations and calculations provide that cannot be provided by the raw or processed logs themselves?
Problem 2 Why would the alerting function be important?
Problem 3 What types of information would be valuable for displaying in charts or graphs?
Problem 4 What types of alerts would be helpful?
Problem 5 What types of statistical analysis do some of these tools provide?
Problem 6 Why might a basic understanding of data analysis and statistics be practical when working with these tools?
