Problem detection and categorization for integration flows

A computer-implemented method, the method comprising:

• determining, by a processor, an event time associated with an event for an executing integration flow, the integration flow defining how messages are passed between a sender system and a receiver system and the event being an occurrence of a point in time where messages successfully processed by the integration flow decreases;
• determining, by the processor, message processing states for messages of the integration flow before the event time;
• determining, by the processor, message processing states for messages of the integration flow after the event time;
• determining, by the processor based on an evaluation of failed message processing states for the messages before the event time and failed message processing states for the messages after the event time, whether the event is associated with a problem, the problem indicated by an impactful increase in failed messages after the event time relative to failed messages before the event time;
• assigning, by the processor in response to the determination that the event time is associated with a problem, one or more categories to the problem;
• and
• storing a record of the assignment of the one or more categories to the problem in a data repository.

A non-transitory, computer readable medium storing instructions, which when executed by at least one processor cause a computer to perform a method comprising:

• determining, by a processor, an event time associated with an event for an executing integration flow, the integration flow defining how messages are passed between a sender system and a receiver system and the event being an occurrence of a point in time where messages successfully processed by the integration flow decreases;
• determining, by the processor, message processing states for messages of the integration flow before the event time;
• determining, by the processor, message processing states for messages of the integration flow after the event time;
• determining, by the processor based on an evaluation of failed message processing states for the messages before the event time and failed message processing states for the messages after the event time, whether the event time is associated with a problem, the problem indicated by an impactful increase in failed messages after the event time relative to failed messages before the event time;
• assigning, by the processor in response to the determination that the event time is associated with a problem, one or more categories to the problem;
• and
• storing a record of the assignment of the one or more categories to the problem in a data repository.
