Abstract: Alert correlation helps reduce the number of alerts that IT staff have to act upon. Methods include a computer program product that applies a machine driven deep learning model to effectively correlate alerts caused by a common root cause. The methods of correlation provide the user the context of the root cause for the alerts. Therefore, it helps the user to quickly identify, understand and resolve the problem thereby reducing the mean time to identification and resolution. Alerts caused by the same root cause therefor come together.

Abstract: Alert correlation plays an important role in IT event management. It helps reduce the number of alerts that IT staff have to act upon. The disclosure describes a method, a computer program product that applies a machine driven deep learning model to effectively correlate alerts caused by a common root cause. In addition, this method of correlation provides the user the context of the root cause. Therefore, it helps the user to quickly identify, understand and resolve the problem thereby reducing the mean time to identification and resolution. Alerts that are caused by the same root cause therefor come together. In the machine learning world, language sequence models are doing very well on learning the sequence patterns between words. For example, the machine can learn the subtle difference between choice of words and the order of words in order to fake a person's writing.
