Manage seasonality better with "Holiday" Exclusion Windows

For many businesses, incoming data looks very different during major holidays. Maybe there is more or less data than normal, or the profile of that data is much different. For example, a financial technology firm may see less new data than normal on July 4, because markets are closed in the United States. Or an e-commerce company based in the United States may see more new data than normal on Black Friday, because it's one of the busiest shopping days of the year.

You can now easily use exclusion windows to Manage Holidays in order to:

  • Remove the unusual holiday data from influencing machine learning thresholds
  • Avoid receiving unwanted alerts during holidays

The available holidays include the 11 Federal Holidays within the United States, plus a few additional unofficial holidays that often influence data (e.g. Black Friday).
