Abstract
One example method includes monitoring performance of an element of a runtime environment, where the monitoring includes collecting performance information concerning the element, analyzing the collected information, detecting, based on the analysis of the collected information, an anomaly in the performance of the element and, in response to detection of the anomaly, automatically marking a snapshot of the runtime environment element, and the marking of the snapshot overrides a retention policy applicable to the snapshot.
Claims20
A method, comprising:
- monitoring performance of a computing system element of a runtime environment, and monitoring comprises collecting performance information concerning the computing system element;
- analyzing, using a machine learning model, the collected information;
- using the machine learning model to detect, based on the analyzing of the collected information, an anomaly in the performance of the computing system element;
- and
- in response to detection of the anomaly, automatically marking a snapshot of the computing system element, and the marking of the snapshot overrides a retention policy applicable to the snapshot.
A computer readable storage medium having stored therein instructions that are executable by one or more hardware processors to perform operations comprising:
- monitoring performance of a computing system element of a runtime environment, and monitoring comprises collecting performance information concerning the element;
- analyzing, using a machine learning model, the collected information;
- using the machine learning model to detect, based on the analyzing of the collected information, an anomaly in the performance of the computing system element;
- and
- in response to detection of the anomaly, automatically marking a snapshot of the computing system element, and the marking of the snapshot overrides a retention policy applicable to the snapshot.
