Abstract: A data analysis system processes data generated by instrumented software. The data analysis system receives data streams generated by instances of instrumented software executing on systems. The data analysis system also receives metadata describing data streams. The data analysis system receives an expression based on the metadata. The data analysis system receives data of data streams for each time interval and computes the result of the expression based on the received data values. The data analysis system repeats these steps for each time interval. The data analysis system may quantize data values of data streams for each time interval by generating an aggregate value for the time interval based on data received for each data stream for that time interval. The data analysis system evaluates the expression using the quantized data for the time interval.

Abstract: An instrumentation analysis system processes data streams by executing instructions specified using a data stream language program. The data stream language allows users to specify a search condition using a find block for identifying the set of data streams processed by the data stream language program. The set of identified data streams may change dynamically. The data stream language allows users to group data streams into sets of data streams based on distinct values of one or more metadata attributes associated with the input data streams. The data stream language allows users to specify a threshold block for determining whether data values of input data streams are outside boundaries specified using low/high thresholds. The elements of the set of data streams input to the threshold block can dynamically change. The low/high threshold values can be specified as data streams and can dynamically change.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method and system for registering a recursive watch on a node in hierarchical data structure. Embodiments of the disclosed technique may include (i) receiving a request to register an event listener on a source node, the source node being one of a plurality of nodes that are related to each other in a hierarchy; (ii) registering the event listener on the source node, the event listener configured to notify a client of an occurrence of a first event in the source node; and (iii) if the source node has a descendant node in the hierarchy, setting the event listener to notify the client of an occurrence of a second event in the descendant node without requiring registration of another event listener on the descendant node. Each of the nodes may represent, for example, a logical partition of a storage device.

Abstract: An analysis system receives data streams generated by instances of instrumented software executing on external systems. The analysis system evaluates an expression using data values of the data streams over a plurality of time intervals. For example, the analysis system may aggregate data values of data streams for each time interval. The analysis system determines whether or not a data stream is considered for a time interval based on when the data value arrives during the time interval. The analysis system determines a maximum expected delay value for each data stream being processed. The analysis system evaluates the expression using data values that arrive before their maximum expected delay values. The analysis system also determines a failure threshold value for a data stream. If a data value of a data stream fails to arrive before the failure threshold value, the analysis system marks the data stream as dead.

Abstract: A tool for the deployment of software onto servers and other network resources provides a mechanism for parties that do not manage the operation of the servers to deploy new software. The new software is uploaded into an update directory, and a cut-over process is carried out whereby the contents of a live directory, where the currently-executing version of the software is stored, is synchronized with the update directory. Prior to this synchronization, the current state of the live directory is stored in a rollback directory. After the cut-over process, the live directory of the server becomes the source for deployment of the software to update directories in other servers. If the new version of the software is not operating to satisfaction, the information in the rollback directory is used to return the server to the prior version of the software while the new software is being revised.
