Changelog transformation and correlation in a multi-tenant cloud service

Abstract:

Technologies are described herein for changelog transformation and correlation in a multi-tenant cloud service. Components within the multi-tenant cloud service generate changelogs that describe changes made to hardware or software components within the multi-tenant cloud service. The changelogs are received and transformed from different schemas into a common schema. A central change management service ("CCMS") exposes a network service application programming interface ("API"), or other type of interface, through which other network services can obtain the changelogs that have been transformed into the common schema. For example, services can obtain changelogs in order to correlate changes to anomalies or other events taking place in the multi-tenant cloud service, to identify upstream or downstream components that might be impacted by a change, to provide a user interface for viewing the changelogs, the correlation, or the potential impact of a change, and/or to perform other types of functions.
