Anomalies are detected from the extracted operation data and annotating corresponding objects in the graph. A directional impact between corresponding objects on the temporal graph is determined, and the temporal graph is refined based on the determined directional impact. Accessible paths in the temporal graph indicating error propagation are searched, and potential causes for the detected anomalies in the temporal graph are identified. A list of the potential causes of the anomalies is generated, and a root cause ranked for each of the corresponding objects in the temporal graph.
