Abstract
Disclosed are methods method, systems, and computer program products for automatic management of a data processing system (DPS). One embodiment of the method may comprise receiving, at a computer processor, operations data associated with a DPS; and generating, by a Question-Answer (QA) system executing on the computer processor, a Question sentence from the operations data. The method may further comprise sampling a window of the operations data, extracting a plurality of key performance indicators (KPI) from the operations data in the sampled window, and providing the plurality of KPI to the QA system.
Claims20
A method for automatic management of a data processing system (DPS), the method comprising:
- receiving, at a computer processor, operations data associated with a DPS;
- and
- generating, by a Question-Answer (QA) system executing on the computer processor, a Question sentence from the operations data.
A system for automatic management of a data processing system (DPS), the system comprising:
- a logging system adapted to receive operations data for the DPS;
- and
- a Question-Answer (QA) generation pipeline adapted to generate a Question sentence from the operations data.
A computer program product, comprising a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, the program instructions being executable by a computer to cause the computer to perform a method for automatic management of a data processing system (DPS), the method comprising:
- receiving operations data associated with a DPS, wherein the operations data comprises event logs and performance metrics from an operational DPS;
- sampling a window of the operations data;
- extracting a plurality of key performance indicators (KPI) from the operations data in the sampled window;
- and
- providing the plurality of KPI as a pseudo language input sentence to a Question-Answer (QA) system;
- generating, by the QA system, a Question sentence from the operations data;
- generating, by the QA system, an Answer sentence responsive to the Question sentence, wherein the Answer sentence comprises a script adapted to perform a remediation action for a fault identified in the Question sentence;
- and
- automatically executing the script.
