Abstract: Log sequence monitoring can be used advantageously in a cloud environment or other system. In at least some embodiments, a cloud administrator or other such entity can use log sequence monitoring tools and/or data to quickly pinpoint a root cause of an anomaly identified through log monitoring. Once the root cause has been determined, the administrator (or other appropriate person, process, or entity) can take appropriate remedial action on the faulty component, service, or other such cause.
