Abstract: A system and method for automatically identifying an anomalous pattern. The method encompasses receiving, a stream of data. The method further comprises determining, a monitoring metric for at least one of one or more dimensions and one or more groups of dimensions associated with the stream of data, at a target time and at a benchmark time period. Further the method comprises identifying, the monitoring metric at the target time as an outlier to the monitoring metric at the benchmark time period based at least on a threshold value. The method further comprises automatically identifying, the anomalous pattern based at least on said identification of the monitoring metric for at least one of the dimension(s) and the group(s) of dimensions at the target time as the outlier to the monitoring metric for at least one of the dimension(s) and the group(s) of dimensions at the benchmark time period.

Abstract: A messaging system provides messaging interactions between users of a group. A message received from a subscriber user and intended for an administrator user is routed to an administrator user, the message not being visible to other subscriber users. A message received from an administrator user and intended for a specific subscriber user is routed to the specific subscriber user, the message not being visible to other subscriber users. A message received from an administrator user and intended for plural subscriber users is routed to the plural subscriber users. A subscriber user is unable to send a message to another subscriber user via the messaging system.
