  • Gigaom Radar for Cloud Observability V1.0
    MARKET RADAR GigaOm Radar for Cloud Observability v1.0 ANDY THURAI | FEB 26, 2021 - 10:57 AM CST TOPIC: CLOUD INFRASTRUCTURE CREDIT: BAGOTAJ GigaOm Radar for Cloud Observability TABLE OF CONTENTS 1 Summary 2 Market Categories and Deployment Types 3 Key Criteria Comparison 4 GigaOm Radar 5 Vendor Insights 6 Analyst’s Take 7 About Andy Thurai 8 About GigaOm 9 Copyright GigaOm Radar for Cloud Observability v1.0 2 1. Summary Observability is an emerging set of practices, platforms, and tools that goes beyond monitoring to provide insight into the internal state of systems by analyzing external outputs. It’s a concept that has its roots in 19th century control theory concepts and is rapidly gaining traction today. Of course, monitoring has been a core function of IT for decades, but old approaches have become inadequate for a variety of reasons—cloud deployments, agile development methodology, continuous deployments, and new DevOps practices among them. These have changed the way systems, infrastructure, and applications need to be observed so events and incidents can be acted upon quickly. At the heart of the observability concept is a very basic premise: quickly learn what happens within your IT to avoid extended outages. And in the unfortunate event of an outage, you need to ensure that you can get to the root cause of it fast. Outages are measured by Mean Time To Resolution (MTTR) and it is the goal of the observability concept to drive the MTTR value to as close to zero as possible. No surprise, building resilient service delivery systems that are available with high uptime is the ultimate end goal for any business.

  • Designing Phelkstat: Big Data Analytics for System Event Logs
    Designing PhelkStat: Big Data Analytics for System Event Logs Mohammed Salman∗, Brian Welch∗ and Joseph Tront∗ David Raymondy, Randy Marchanyy ∗Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering y IT Security Office Virginia Tech, Blacksburg Virginia Tech, Blacksburg Abstract—With wider adoption of micro-service based archi- tectures in cloud and distributed systems, logging and monitoring costs have become increasingly relevant topics of research. There are a large number of log analysis tools such as the ELK(ElasticSearch, Logstash and Kibana) stack, Apache Spark, Sumo Logic, and Loggly, among many others. These tools have been deployed to perform anomaly detection, diagnose threats, optimize performance, and troubleshoot systems. Due to the real- time and distributed nature of logging, there will always be a need to optimize the performance of these tools; this performance can be quantified in terms of compute, storage, and network utilization. As part of the Information Technology Security Lab at Virginia Tech, we have the unique ability to leverage production data from the university network for research and testing. We analyzed the workload variations from two production systems at Virginia Tech, finding that the maximum workload is about four times the average workload. Therefore, a static configuration can lead to an inefficient use of resources. To address this, we propose PhelkStat: a tool to evaluate the temporal and spatial attributes of system workloads, using clustering algorithms to categorize the current workload. Using PhelkStat, system parameters can be automatically tweaked based on the workload. This paper reviews publicly available system event log datasets from supercomputing clusters and presents a statistical analysis of these datasets.

  • Leveraging Clustering and Natural Language Processing to Overcome Variety Issues in Log Management
    Leveraging Clustering and Natural Language Processing to Overcome Variety Issues in Log Management Tobias Eljasik-Swoboda1 a, and Wilhelm Demuth2 1ONTEC AG, Ernst-Melchior-Gasse 24/DG, 1100 Vienna, Austria 2SCHOELLER NETWORK CONTROL GmbH, Ernst-Melchior-Gasse 24/DG, 1100 Vienna, Austria [email protected], [email protected] Keywords: Industrial Applications of AI, Intelligence and Cybersecurity, Machine Learning, Natural Language Processing, Trainer/Athlete Pattern, Log Analysis, Log Management, Event Normalization, Security Information and Event Management, Big Data Abstract: When introducing log management or Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) practices, organizations are frequently challenged by Gartner’s 3 Vs of Big Data: There is a large volume of data which is generated at a rapid velocity. These first two Vs can be effectively handled by current scale-out architectures. The third V is that of variety which affects log management efforts by the lack of a common mandatory format for log files. Essentially every component can log its events differently. The way it is logged can change with every software update. This paper describes the Log Analysis Machine Learner (LAMaLearner) system. It uses a blend of different Artificial Intelligence techniques to overcome variety issues and identify relevant events within log files. LAMaLearner is able to cluster events and generate human readable representations for all events within a cluster. A human being can annotate these clusters with specific labels. After these labels exist, LAMaLearner leverages machine learning based natural language processing techniques to label events even in changing log formats. Additionally, LAMaLearner is capable of identifying previously known named entities occurring anywhere within the logged event as well identifying frequently co-occurring variables in otherwise fixed log events.

AI for IT operations (AIOps) is one area where the application of technology, if not matched with organizational maturity and readiness, will fail to deliver all promised benefits. This report provides an analysis of the AIOps market. Figure 1 shows the diversity in the AIOps market. Figure 1: The Omdia Universe for AIOps Source: Omdia © 2021 Omdia. All rights reserved. Unauthorized reproduction prohibited. Omdia Universe: Selecting an AIOps Solution, 02 2021–22 Omdia view AIOps is an evolving market from many different IT operational management domains. This evolution witnessed the vendors develop initial solutions based on their own domain-specific perceptions of business requirements. However, as the market matured, the domain expertise and perception of requirements changed, and the leading AIOps vendors have all demonstrated a clear understanding of what an AIOps solution must offer to customers. The pleasing aspect of this maturity is a recognition that AIOps must be an open solution that does not demand customers to deploy a single vendors stack of capabilities alone; rather, AIOps can work with existing domain expert systems such as application performance monitoring (APM), etc. to provide a broad and deep perspective of the IT environment. Omdia can see the potential future evolution of AIOps as branching out to more business and other related areas such as environmental sustainability.

The world is moving at breakneck speed, from super quantum computing to artificial intelligence to self-driving cars. Enterprises across every industry — from traditional banks to pizza delivery — are undergoing massive digital transformation powered by software. At the same time, customers have higher expectations for on-demand services than ever before. When the risk of downtime means billions in lost revenue and customer backlash, the stakes of missing customer expectations for availability and performance are higher than ever. What’s more, the rise of the knowledge worker in enterprises demands instant access to information and ways to be productive.
