This is my presentation from LISA 2014 in Seattle on November 14, 2014. Most IT Ops teams only keep an eye on a small fraction of the metrics they collect because analyzing this haystack of data and extracting signal from the noise is not easy and generates too many false positives. In this talk I will show some of the types of anomalies commonly found in dynamic data center environments and discuss the top 5 things I learned while building algorithms to find them. You will see how various Gaussian based techniques work (and why they dont!), and we will go into some non-parametric methods that you can use to great advantage.]]>

You can now measure all the things. Your team has set up thousands of metrics collecting millions of data points a day. Now what? Most IT ops teams only keep an eye on a small fraction of the metrics they collect because analyzing this mountain of data and extracting signal from the noise is not easy. The choice of what analytic method to use ranges from simple statistical analysis to sophisticated machine learning techniques. And one algorithm doesnt fit all data. ]]>

Velocity Europe 2013: Beyond Pretty Charts: Analytics for the cloud infrastructure. /slideshow/beyond-pretty-charts-toufic-boubez-metafor-software-20131115/28310872 beyondprettycharts-touficboubez-metaforsoftware-2013-11-15-131116060026-phpapp02
My presentation from Velocity Europe 2013 in London: Beyond Pretty Charts. Analytics for the cloud infrastructure. IT Ops collect tons of data on the status of their data center or cloud environment. Much of that data ends up as graphs on big screens so ops folks can keep an eye on the behavior of their systems. But unless a threshold is crossed, behavioral issues will often fall through the cracks. Thresholds are reactive, and humans are, well, human. Applying analytics and machine learning to detect anomalies in dynamic infrastructure environments can catch these behavioral changes before they become critical. Current tools used to monitor web environments rely on fundamental assumptions that are no longer true such as assuming that the underlying system being monitored is relatively static or that the behavioral limits of these systems can be defined by static rules and thresholds. Thus interest in applying analytics and machine learning to predict and detect anomalies in these dynamic environments is gaining steam. However, understanding which algorithms should be used to identify and predict anomalies accurately within all that data we generate is not so easy. This talk will begin with a brief definition of the types of anomalies commonly found in dynamic data center environments and then discuss some of the key elements to consider when thinking about anomaly detection such as: Understanding your datas characteristics The two main approaches for analyzing operations data: parametric and non-parametric methods Simple data transformations that can give you powerful results By the end of this talk, attendees will understand the pros and cons of the key statistical analysis techniques and walk away with examples as well as practical rules of thumb and usage patterns.]]>

Vancouver DevOps Days 25 October 2013 IT Ops collect a ton of data and produce reams of graphs to monitor systems and applications. Getting the right signal out of all that noise however is getting tougher and tougher. The traditional techniques to deal with such metrics, whether threshold-based or very simple statistical methods that were developed to deal with stable, static manufacturing processes, are failing in todays dynamic environment. Interest in applying more advanced analytics and machine learning to detect anomalies is gaining steam but understanding which algorithms should be used to identify and predict anomalies without producing more false positives is not so easy. This talk will begin with a brief definition of the types of anomalies commonly found in dynamic data center environments and then discuss some of the key elements to consider when thinking about anomaly detection such as: Understanding your datas characteristics The two main approaches for analyzing operations data: parametric and non-parametric methods Overview of some current simple statistical methods and their weaknesses Simple data transformations that can give you powerful results By the end of this talk, attendees will understand the pros and cons of the key statistical analysis techniques and walk away with examples as well as practical rules of thumb and usage patterns.]]>
