A system and method for detecting anomalies in a data stream is described. The system receives the data stream that comprises values of metrics derived from observations of operation of a computing entity over a time window. A model comprising variances of the data over the time window is formed. The model identifies operating thresholds for each metric based on the variances of the data for each metric in the data stream. The system computes a steady state distance matrix of the data stream. The system determines that the steady state distance matrix exceeds a steady state threshold. In response to determining that the steady state distance matrix exceeds the steady state threshold, the system computes a pattern distance matrix based on the steady state distance matrix. The anomaly in the data stream is detected based on the pattern distance matrix. The system generates an alert indicating the anomaly.
