One click monitors in impact time detection for noise reduction in at-scale monitoring

Abstract:

Methods for one click monitors in impact time detection for noise reduction in at-scale monitoring are performed by systems and devices. The methods automatically configure time window sizes and numbers of consecutive time windows for optimally detecting system alerts in at-scale systems and per dimension combinations, including updating settings over time to adapt to changing system behaviors. The past behavior of system performance metrics are analyzed to match configuration options and determine a best fitting or optimal combination of a highest detection accuracy in lowest time to detect for alerting. Optimal monitoring configurations are determined for each of up to hundreds of thousands of the metric dimensions across the system, and an end user is enabled to apply the determined, optimal configurations for system monitoring with a single selection.
