the architecture:
* [Model as a Service](metron-analytics/metron-maas-service) : A Yarn
application which can deploy machine learning and statistical models onto the
cluster along with the associated Stellar functions to be able to call out to
them in a scalable manner.
* [Data management](metron-platform/metron-data-management) : A set of
data management utilities aimed at getting data into HBase in a format which
will allow data flowing through metron to be enriched with the results.
Contains integrations with threat intelligence feeds exposed via TAXII as well
as simple flat file structures.
* [Profiler](metron-analytics/metron-profiler) : A feature extraction
mechanism that can generate a profile describing the behavior of an entity. An
entity might be a server, user, subnet or application. Once a profile has been
generated defining what normal behavior looks-like, models can be built that
identify anomalous behavior.
