Abstract: Technologies are generally described to provide a passive monitoring system employing a logging schema to track usage data in order to analyze performance and reliability of a service. The logging schema may be configured to track user requests as each request is received and processed at individual subsystems of the collaborative service. A logging entry may be created at a data store of the service, where the logging entry includes a subsystem name, an operation performed by the subsystem to fulfill the request and start and end times of the operation. The logging schema may also detect errors fulfilling the requests, and may classify detected errors into a bucket, where each bucket denotes a failure scenario. Reliability of the service may be calculated based on analysis of the buckets to compute error rates. Reports may be generated to enable continuous monitoring of a performance and reliability of the system.

Abstract: A system enables initiation of request driven peak-hour builds to override “off-peak” patching schedules for updating server applications. An “off-peak” patching schedule is generated to minimize disruption from installing builds of patches. Notwithstanding the “off-peak” patching schedule, a tenant administrator initiates request driven peak-hour builds when some performance failure occurs during peak business hours. For example, the tenant administrator may generate a service request that includes incident data that is usable to identify and/or develop a particular patch for resolving the performance failure. Based on the service request, the “off-peak” patching schedule is overridden to expedite an out-of-sequence installation of a particular patch. In this way, a tenant administrator that becomes aware that some performance failure is disrupting information workers during a peak usage time-range (e.g.
