  • Patent number: 11762562
    Abstract: The present invention aims to specify a bottlenecked resource more accurately in an IT system. In a performance analysis apparatus which includes a processing device, a storage device and an input/output interface and analyzes a performance of an IT system, the processing device creates an overall performance prediction model by using a nonlinear regression algorithm with a first overall performance value being set as an objective variable and with a first resource performance value being set as an explanatory variable, creates an explanatory model by inputting the overall performance prediction model and using an XAI technology and calculates a degree of per-resource influence on the overall performance value which is output by inputting a second resource performance value into the explanatory model.

  • Publication number: 20210264375
    Abstract: Prediction of time series data can be performed while coping with a “non-equidistant event,” “extrapolation,” and a “base line shift.” An event regression section calculates event prediction data that is predicted values of metric data in an intended period including a past certain period on the basis of actual measured value data indicating values of the metric data in the past metric data. A correction section calculates, as prediction result data that is a prediction result of the time series data, data obtained by shifting each value of the event prediction data in response to a difference between the actual measured value data and the event prediction data in a same period.
