  • Tracking requests that flow between subsystems using transaction identifiers for generating log data
    Patent number: 8635617
    Abstract: The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for tracking requests that flow between subsystems. Embodiments of the invention facilitate following a user interaction/transaction from the point of entry through any subsystems that are called until the interaction/transaction is fulfilled. Generated information (e.g., log data) regarding a transaction can be aggregated across all subsystems, such as, for example, in a central repository. When failures occur, log and trace levels can be automatically increased for subsequent calls.
