+# Deriving metrics from logs
+
+You can use Data Prepper to derive metrics from logs. 
+
+The following example pipeline receives incoming logs using the [`http` source plugin]({{site.url}}{{site.baseurl}}/data-prepper/pipelines/configuration/sources/http-source) and the [`grok` processor]({{site.url}}{{site.baseurl}}/data-prepper/pipelines/configuration/processors/grok/). It then uses the [`aggregate` processor]({{site.url}}{{site.baseurl}}/data-prepper/pipelines/configuration/processors/aggregate/) to extract the metric bytes aggregated during a 30-second window and derives histograms from the results.
+
+This pipeline writes data to two different OpenSearch indexes:
+
+- `logs`: This index stores the original, un-aggregated log events after being processed by the `grok` processor.
+- `histogram_metrics`: This index stores the derived histogram metrics extracted from the log events using the `aggregate` processor.
+
+The pipeline contains two sub-pipelines:
+
+- `apache-log-pipeline-with-metrics`: Receives logs through an HTTP client like FluentBit, using `grok` to extract important values from the logs by matching the value in the log key against the [Apache Common Log Format](https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/logs.html#accesslog). It then forwards the grokked logs to two destinations:
+
+ - An OpenSearch index named `logs` to store the original log events.
+ - The `log-to-metrics-pipeline` for further aggregation and metric derivation.
+
+- `log-to-metrics-pipeline`: Receives the grokked logs from the `apache-log-pipeline-with-metrics` pipeline, aggregates the logs, and derives histogram metrics of bytes based on the values in the `clientip` and `request` keys. Finally, it sends the derived histogram metrics to an OpenSearch index named `histogram_metrics`.

+#### Example pipeline
+
+```json
+apache-log-pipeline-with-metrics:
+  source:
+    http:
+      # Provide the path for ingestion. ${pipelineName} will be replaced with pipeline name configured for this pipeline.
+      # In this case it would be "/apache-log-pipeline-with-metrics/logs". This will be the FluentBit output URI value.
+      path: "/${pipelineName}/logs"
+  processor:
+    - grok:
+        match:
+          log: [ "%{COMMONAPACHELOG_DATATYPED}" ]
+  sink:
+    - opensearch:
+        ...
+        index: "logs"
+    - pipeline:
+        name: "log-to-metrics-pipeline"
+        
+log-to-metrics-pipeline:
+  source:
+    pipeline:
+      name: "apache-log-pipeline-with-metrics"
+  processor:
+    - aggregate:
+        # Specify the required identification keys
+        identification_keys: ["clientip", "request"]
+        action:
+          histogram:
+            # Specify the appropriate values for each of the following fields
+            key: "bytes"
+            record_minmax: true
+            units: "bytes"
+            buckets: [0, 25000000, 50000000, 75000000, 100000000]
+        # Pick the required aggregation period
+        group_duration: "30s"
