ROOT CAUSE ANALYSIS BY CORRELATING SYMPTOMS WITH ASYNCHRONOUS CHANGES

摘要

An indication of a problem in at least one component of a computing system is obtained. A relevant change set associated with a directed dependency graph is analyzed. The computing system is configured to proactively overcome a root cause of the problem. The relevant change set includes a list of past changes to the computing system which are potentially relevant to the problem. The directed dependency graph includes dependency information regarding given components of the computing system invoked by transactions in the computing system. The analyzing includes identifying at least one of the past changes to the computing system that is the root cause of the problem.
