Techniques for generating diagnostic identifiers to trace request messages and identifying related diagnostic information

摘要

Techniques are described for determining diagnostic information (e.g., a diagnostic identifier) for one or more requests in a cloud computer system. A diagnostic identifier may be generated based on parameter data corresponding to one or more parameters in a request. A computing operation may be performed to generate a code (e.g., a hash code) for each parameter in the parameter data. The generated code(s) may be combined to form a diagnostic identifier to identify the parameter data. A comparison may be performed by comparing each code in one diagnostic identifier to a code in another diagnostic identifier corresponding to a parameter for which the codes were generated. A measure of a match between the two identifiers may be determined using a result of the comparison. The measure of the match may enable tracing and analysis of one or more requests in the cloud computer system.

1. A method comprising:
extracting, by a computer system, information from a first message, wherein the first message is received from a computing device, and wherein the first message includes a first request for a service provided by an enterprise computer system; identifying, by the computer system, parameter data in the extracted information, wherein the parameter data includes a value corresponding to each parameter of a plurality of parameters, and wherein the parameter data identifies a resource and a context for the requested service; generating, by the computer system, a plurality of codes, wherein each code of the plurality of codes is generated using the value corresponding to a different parameter of the plurality of parameters; determining, by the computer system, a first diagnostic identifier for the first message by combining the generated plurality of codes; determining, by the computer system, a second diagnostic identifier for a second message, wherein the second message includes a second request, and wherein the second diagnostic identifier is determined based on parameter data in the second message; and computing, by the computer system, a value that indicates a measure of a match between the first diagnostic identifier and the second diagnostic identifier, wherein the value is computed by comparing the first diagnostic identifier to the second diagnostic identifier.
