Patent number: 11177999Abstract: A system and technique for correlating computing network events includes receiving a deployment request for a computing service and identify a deployment template corresponding to the requested computing service where the deployment template indicates resources needed for providing the computing service. Available resources are identified and targeted based on the deployment template. The targeted resources are deployed and the deployment template is associated in a memory with an identification of a resource set indicating each of the deployed resource elements. Responsive to receiving an event including a resource identifier, an event manager identifies the resource set having the deployed resource corresponding to the resource identifier and correlates the event with at least one other active event corresponding to the resource set.Type: GrantFiled: October 23, 2019Date of Patent: November 16, 2021Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Edith H. Stern, Kristian J. Stewart

Publication number: 20170024745Abstract: A network management system includes an index of historical events, some of which are associated with at least one historical group type and including for the at least one historical group type, the probability that an historical group of that type will lead to a further event action. Further, the network management system includes for each historical event type, the probability that an historical event of that type will be in the at least one historical group; an event classifier for determining, from the index, an historical group type associated with a new event; an action probability classifier for determining the probability of a further event action occurring due to the new event based on the probability of the associated historical group leading to an historical further event action and the probability of the new event being in the associated historical group; and an event tagger for assigning the probability of the further event action to the new event.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 20, 2015Publication date: January 26, 2017Inventors: Anthony T.
