Description

Today's computing systems encounter faults on a daily basis. Predicting which node will fail and how soon remains a challenge, that needs to be solved to pave the way to exploiting proactive remedies before jobs fail. Scale, complex system design and diverse unstructured log sources have made data mining-based failure diagnosis non-trivial. Existing anomaly detection schemes fall short of lead time analysis, an indispensable requirement for real-time prediction. While high lead times are helpful, low false positive rate is also a necessity for production systems. This talk will highlight some of the effective methods developed for achieving lead times to node failures for predictive localization in large-scale computing infrastructures.
