Combining multiple signals to determine global system state

摘要

Methods and systems are provided for monitoring the health of a service by using a comprehensive collection of analytical values derived from data obtained from a plurality of sensors. Many simultaneous data points are gathered by sensors monitoring a service, which then send the raw data to a collection of analyzers (e.g., servers) running in one or more centralized data centers for examination. Collected data is analyzed to generate various metrics (e.g., analytical values) that can be combined with other data and analysis results to provide indications about the overall health of the service.

1. A monitoring system comprising:
one or more processing devices; and one or more storage devices storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processing devices, cause the one or more processing devices to perform:
receiving sensor data obtained for a network service from a plurality of sensors at one or more locations of the network service;combining the sensor data for the network service received from the plurality of sensors;analyzing the combined sensor data for the network service;generating one or more metrics for evaluating performance of the network service, the one or more metrics being based on the analyzed combined sensor data; andstoring the one or more metrics in a data repository.
