Anomaly Detector is an AI service with a set of APIs, which enables you to monitor and detect anomalies in your time series data with little ML knowledge, either batch validation or real-time inference.

If your goal is to detect anomalies out of a normal pattern on each individual time series purely based on their own historical data, use univariate anomaly detection APIs. For example, you want to detect daily revenue anomalies based on revenue data itself, or you want to detect a CPU spike purely based on CPU data.

If your goal is to detect system level anomalies from a group of time series data, use multivariate anomaly detection APIs. Particularly, when any individual time series won't tell you much, and you have to look at all signals (a group of time series) holistically to determine a system level issue. For example, you have an expensive physical asset like aircraft, equipment on an oil rig, or a satellite. Each of these assets has tens or hundreds of different types of sensors. You would have to look at all those time series signals from those sensors to decide whether there is system level issue.
