Zeno Heeb, Onur Kalinagac, Wissem Soussi, Gürkan Gür · 2023
Softwarized services in converged networks are evolving from monolithic applications to distributed architectures, often comprising numerous microservices. At the same time, with the massive proliferation of IoT devices, much more complexity and diversity are added to such critical infrastructures. In that regard, Root Cause Analysis (RCA) is an important part of a running distributed service ecosystem to keep the applications available and manageable by finding the root causes of errors and malfunctions. This paper provides a topology graph based anomaly detection and RCA solution for the microservice architecture in edge-to-cloud environments entailing microservices in combination with IoT.
