1.The **Interval Size** slider tool enables you to zoom in and out of intervals over the same timespan. This provides more precise control of movement between large slices of time that show smooth trends down to slices as small as the millisecond, allowing you to see granular, high-resolution cuts of your data. The slider’s default starting point is set as the most optimal view of the data from your selection; balancing resolution, query speed, and granularity.

-**Patterns**: this feature proactively surfaces the most statistically significant patterns in a selected data region. This relieves you from having to look at thousands of events to understand what patterns most warrant time and energy. Further, Time Series Insights enables you to jump directly into these statistically significant patterns to continue conducting an analysis. This feature is also helpful for post-mortem investigations into historical data.
