Reduce time to detect with AppDynamics Cloud Log Analytics

How machine learning in AppDynamics Cloud accelerates log analysis and reduces mean time to detect. Site recovery engineers (SREs) need to investigate unknown problems reported in production. The common approach is to search and filter log files to find the root cause, and we all know how painful it is to sift through log contents. It’s like finding a needle in a haystack. A machine learning approach is essential to assist SREs to quickly identify the root cause.

The Guide to SRE Principles

Site reliability engineering (SRE) is a discipline in which automated software systems are built to manage the development operations (DevOps) of a product or service. In other words, SRE automates the functions of an operations team via software systems. The main purpose of SRE is to encourage the deployment and proper maintenance of large-scale systems.
