Alternate to dedup
Hi,
I need to remove duplicates in my results, is there anyway to do this other than using dedup.
I used stats, eventstats still no luck

stats count by your_field is faster than dedup if you don't want to keep other fields

Terribly inelegant, but you could stats count by your_field and then join those results with the same search copied and pasted
<your_search> ... | table your_field b c | stats count by your_field | join type=left your_field [<your_search>] | table your_field b c

(I am on the same page as you in that 99.9999% of the time I want to keep my other fields as well, which makes stats values absolutely useless in this "debate")

@ rupesh26 try a distinct count:
| stats dc(<your_feild>)

This counts distinct values it does not dedup.
