Abstract
Improved techniques for flow analysis in messaging systems are disclosed. For example, a method for finding correlations between messages of a system based on content includes the following steps. For one or more executions of the system, obtaining the messages of the system, wherein each message has a schema associated therewith. The messages are categorized into groups, wherein each group has a common schema. Pairs of messages from disparate groups are found wherein, for the messages of a pair, there is a feature in common in their contents.
Claims20
A method for finding correlations between messages of a system based on content, the method comprising the steps of:
- obtaining for one or more executions of the system, the messages of the system, wherein each message has a schema associated therewith;
- categorizing the messages into groups, wherein each group has a common schema;
- and
- finding pairs of messages from disparate groups wherein, for the messages of a pair, there is a feature in common in their contents.
Apparatus for finding correlations between messages of a system based on content, comprising:
- a memory;
- and
- at least one processor coupled to the memory and operative to:
- (i) obtain for one or more executions of the system, the messages of the system, wherein each message has a schema associated therewith;
- (ii) categorize the messages into groups, wherein each group has a common schema;
- and (iii) find pairs of messages from disparate groups wherein, for the messages of a pair, there is a feature in common in their contents.
A computer readable storage medium for finding correlations between messages of a system based on content, comprising one or more programs which when executed by a computer implement the steps of:
- obtaining for one or more executions of the system, the messages of the system, wherein each message has a schema associated therewith;
- categorizing the messages into groups, wherein each group has a common schema;
- and
- finding pairs of messages from disparate groups wherein, for the messages of a pair, there is a feature in common in their contents.
