Abstract As cloud system architectures evolve continuously, the interactions among distributed components in various roles become increasingly complex. This complexity makes it difficult to detect anomalies in cloud systems. The system status can no longer be determined through individual key performance indicators (KPIs) but through joint judgments based on synergistic relationships among distributed components. Furthermore, anomalies in modern cloud systems are usually not sudden crashes but rather gradual, chronic, localized failures or quality degradations in a weakly available state. Therefore, accurately modeling cloud systems and mining the hidden system state is crucial. To address this challenge,… More >

Abstract Modern cloud services are monitored by numerous multidomain and multivendor monitoring tools, which generate massive numbers of alerts and events that are not actionable. These alerts usually carry isolated messages that are missing service contexts. Administrators become inundated with tickets caused by such alert events when they are routed directly to incident management systems. Noisy alerts increase the risk of crucial warnings going undetected and leading to service outages. One of the feasible ways to cope with the above problems involves revealing the correlations behind a large number of alerts and then aggregating the related… More >
