Abstract

Disclosed is a technique that can be performed in a distributed computer network. The technique can include a data index and query system that receives a search query, defines a search scheme for applying the search query on distributed data storage systems including an internal data storage system of the data index and query system and an external data storage system. The internal data storage system stores data as time-indexed events including respective segments of raw machine data. The data index and query system can transfer a portion of the search scheme to a search service, which can return search results obtained by application of the search scheme to the distributed data storage systems including the internal data storage system and the external data storage system. Lastly, the search results or data indicative of the search results can be output on a display device to the user.
