CauseInfer : Automated End-to-End Performance Diagnosis with Hierarchical Causality Graph in Cloud Environment

Modern computing systems especially cloud-based and cloud-centric systems always consist of a mass of components running in large distributed environments with complicated interactions. They are vulnerable to performance problems due to the highly dynamic runtime environment changes (e.g., overload and resource contention) or software bugs (e.g., memory leak). Unfortunately, it is notoriously diff...
