It is a free sample of 5,003 rows from a full dataset of 50,048 rows created by author linaaaaaaaaaaaaa.

- Identifying service outage signatures based on the injected database outage anomaly
- Analyzing seasonal traffic trends based on the described seasonal patterns
- Modeling peak hour usage based on the described peak hour traffic variation
- Studying bot traffic behavior based on the described inclusion of bot traffic
Strengths
- Includes 50,000 synthetic HTTP requests across 3 servers
- Contains 12 months of simulated data with weekday/weekend and seasonal variation
- Features two injected anomalies (DDoS attempt and database outage) for detection tasks
