MACHINE LEARNING AIDED DIAGNOSIS AND PROGNOSIS OF LARGE SCALE DISTRIBUTED SYSTEMS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18227877 titled 'MACHINE LEARNING AIDED DIAGNOSIS AND PROGNOSIS OF LARGE SCALE DISTRIBUTED SYSTEMS

The abstract describes a system for providing machine learning aided diagnostics and prognostics for large distributed systems. The system includes a diagnostics module that applies two-tiered analysis to detect anomalous behavior in the system, as well as a prognostics module that maps identified issues to resolution plans.

• Multivariate telemetry and event data is collected and analyzed to identify anomalies in the large distributed system.
• Univariate analysis is then applied to the identified anomalies to rank the results and generate a diagnostics incident report.
• The prognostics module reviews the incident report and maps each issue to a resolution plan.
• If the resolution plan is unsuccessful, the issue is escalated to a support team.
• The system aims to predict and prevent issues, as well as reduce resolution time.

Potential Applications: - Monitoring and maintenance of large distributed systems - Predictive maintenance in industrial settings - Fault detection in complex networks

Problems Solved: - Early detection of anomalies in large distributed systems - Efficient resolution of issues through machine learning aided diagnostics - Reduction of downtime and maintenance costs

Original Abstract Submitted

Disclosed is a system for providing machine learning aided diagnostics and prognostics for large distributed systems. A diagnostics module applies two-tiered analysis to detect anomalous behavior of the large scale distributed system. First, multivariate telemetry and event data emitted from the large scale distributed systems is collected by a diagnostics component, which applies multivariate analysis to identify of set of N-anomalies. Second, univariate telemetry and event data is obtained by the diagnostics component, which applies univariate analysis to the N-anomalies previously identified, ranks the results, and provides them to an AI to generate a diagnostics incident report. A prognostics module reviews the diagnostics incident report and maps each identified issue to a resolution plan. If execution of the resolution plan does not succeed in resolving the identified issue, the issue is escalated to a support team. The disclosed techniques may predict and prevent issues, or drastically reduce resolution time.
