Techniques for identifying faults in a collaborative computing system including a plurality of disparate, geographically separated computing systems are described herein. An intelligent monitoring (IM) server computing system may receive data from the plurality of computing devices and may monitor the health of the collaborative computing system. The IM server computing system may analyze the data and identify one or more faults associated with a portion of the collaborative system (e.g., an associated computing device, platform, network, etc.). In some examples, the IM server computing system may be configured to identify potential future faults associated with the portion of the collaborative system. Based on the fault, the IM server computing device may determine an action to take to remedy the fault and/or prevent the potential future fault. The IM server computing device may either automatically perform the action or send a notification to the associated computing system to perform the action.

Error monitoring and prevention in computing systems based on future fault prediction and historical values of a network characteristic

Techniques for providing recommendations of actions for a user to perform to improve efficiency in user interactions with a user interface of a user computing device. An intelligent monitoring (IM) computing system may receive data from a user computing device and may determine user interactions associated with the user interface. The user interactions may include selections, an order associated with the selections, times associated with the selections, and/or other data corresponding to user interaction with a user interface. The IM computing device may be configured to determine a fault (e.g., inefficiency) associated with the user interactions and determine an action for the user to perform to correct the fault. The IM computing device may cause a notification including the action to surface on a display of the user computing device, such as to inform the user of a means by which they can improve efficiency of the user interactions.

Intelligent user interface monitoring and alert

Error monitoring and prevention in computing systems based on determined trends and routing a data stream over a second network having less latency

A method and apparatus may rapidly test applications by causing or simulating failures within nodes of a cloud computing system in support of both application and infrastructure testing. The method and system may support a variety of 'attacks' including the ability to stop or freeze application servers, insert latency or drop packets between servers, constrain CPU or memory, and disable various software flows and applications. Rather than randomly inserting random failures or simulated failures into cloud-based computing system nodes to test their durability and the efficacy of particular applications or services that are executing within the system, the system and methods include a user interface for manually controlling the system attacks.
