You can achieve what you're looking for using the MLTK and linear regression. You are looking for the slope (rate of change for growth), so you should easily be able to forecast a future value </P> Tue, 30 Jul 2019 15:52:07 GMT skoelpin 2019-07-30T15:52:07Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Search/How-to-use-the-predict-command-without-the-time-chart/m-p/417429#M120108 <P>I would like to predict how long the transaction would take given the dataset grows.
