International Classification:

G06F 1730

US Classification:

707206, 707205, 707200

Abstract:

An incremental garbage collector is disclosed. Upon termination of a function or program, the incremental garbage collector scans the object heap for objects allocated by the function or program that are not referenced outside the function or program that allocated the objects. Memory occupied by such objects is immediately reclaimed without having to wait for the garbage collector.

International Classification:

G06F 11/30

US Classification:

702186

Abstract:

Configuration data and performance data can be collected from computing machines running a target program. Periods of stress for the computing machines can be identified using the performance data, and a set of the computing machines can be grouped under a stress profile using the performance data. One or more configuration points can be identified on the set of machines, and an effect of each of the configuration point(s) on performance of the set of machines can be inferred using the configuration data and the performance data. The inferred effect(s) of the configuration point(s) can be used to determine a baseline set of configuration settings.

International Classification:

G06F 15/173

US Classification:

709224

Abstract:

Feedback data can be received from client agents running on client computer systems. The feedback data can include data on the symptoms and conditions for rules that relate computer system symptoms to computer system conditions. The feedback data can be analyzed to produce correlation information that quantifies a degree of correlation between the symptom(s) and condition(s) related by the rule(s). It may be determined whether analysis of the feedback data warrants including one of the rules in correlation mappings to be applied to monitored computer systems. If so, then that rule can be included in the mappings. Information representing the correlation mappings may be transmitted to the monitored computer system(s). Additionally, information representing the correlation mappings may be transmitted to the monitored computer system(s), and types of feedback data collected from the client agents can be altered on the basis of the correlation information.

- Redmond WA, US
Priyanka GUNDELI - Redmond WA, US
Rahul NIGAM - Bothell WA, US
Mark R. GILBERT - Issaquah WA, US

International Classification:

G06F 11/07
H04L 67/10

Abstract:

Systems and methods for automatically detecting and mitigating errors in a cloud computing environment. One example method includes receiving, from a telemetry server, telemetry data for the cloud computing environment, detecting an error within the cloud computing environment based on the telemetry data, determining an error type for the error based on the telemetry data, determining an impact severity for the error based on the telemetry data, and when the error type is a reportable error type and the impact severity exceeds a predetermined threshold, performing a mitigation action.

- Redmond WA, US
Rahul NIGAM - Bothell WA, US
Parminder Pal SINGH - Redmond WA, US
Mark R. GILBERT - Issaquah WA, US

International Classification:

G06F 8/658
G06F 11/14
H04L 29/08

Abstract:

Disclosed herein is a system for automating the causality detection process when upgrades are deployed to different resources that provide a service. The resources can include physical and/or virtual resources (e.g., processing, storage, and/or networking resources) that are divided into different, geographically dispersed, resource units. To determine whether a root cause of a problem is associated with an upgrade event that has recently been deployed, a system is configured to use telemetry data to compute an upgrade-to-upgrade score that represents differences between two different upgrade events that are deployed to the same resource unit. The system is further configured to use telemetry data to compute an upgrade unit-to-unit score that represents differences between the same upgrade event being deployed to two different resource units. The scores can be used to output an alert, for an analyst, that signals whether a recently deployed upgrade event is the cause of a problem.

International Classification:

G06F 11/07
G06F 8/61
G06F 9/48

Abstract:

Technologies are disclosed for supervised reimaging of vulnerable computing devices with prioritization, auto healing, and pattern detection. A system for re-imaging computing devices includes a scheduler that implements a workflow for reimaging computing devices using software agents. The system also includes a supervisor that monitors state data to determine if the reimaging workflow has failed for any computing devices and for initiating an auto heal job for remediating failure of the re-imaging workflow. The system also includes a vulnerability manager that can perform various operations with respect to computing devices for which a reimaging workflow has failed a predetermined number of times. The vulnerability manager might also, or alternately, identify failure patterns (e.g. multiple instances of a reimaging workflow failing for the same reason) and initiate various actions based upon the identified patterns.

International Classification:

G06Q 30/00
G06F 16/215
G06F 17/21
H04L 12/58

Abstract:

A system for detecting service issues within multi-sourced service data. The system includes a memory and one or more electronic processors coupled to the memory. The electronic processors are configured to receive one or more data sets in near real time, and to enrich the dataset with one or more metadata parameters, pre-clean the data within the dataset, and determine one or more data points within the dataset that are semantically similar to each other. The electronic processors are also configured to generate a similarity score for each of the semantically similar data points, and determine one or more significant clusters within the dataset within a predefined lookback window. The electronic processors are also configured to analyze the determined significant clusters to determine the existence of one or more service issues, and generate a service alert based on the analysis determining that one or more service issues are present.

International Classification:

G06F 9/54

Abstract:

Systems and methods for determining a severity level of a computing service. One system includes an electronic processor that is configured to receive telemetry data associated with one or more tenants of an online service providing services through a plurality of computing services and calculate, based on the telemetry data, a number of accesses of each of the plurality of computing services during a predetermined time period. The electronic processor is also configured to, for each of the plurality of computing services, assign a severity level to each computing service based on the number of accesses of each computing service during the predetermined time period. The electronic processor is further configured to, in response to detecting a failure of one of the plurality of computing services, initiate a response to the failure based on the severity level assigned to the one of the plurality of computing services.
