Techniques for selecting a runbook to recommend for remediating a detected event are disclosed. When a system detects an event, the system obtains metadata associated with the event. The metadata provides information about the event and a system topology of the system in which the event occurred. The system generates a recommendation for a runbook to remediate the event based on one or both of characteristics of the event and characteristics of the topology in which the event occurred. The system compares a system topology to system topologies associated with previously-executed runbooks. The system recommends one of the previously-executed runbooks to remediate a detected event based on determining that the topology associated with the previously-executed runbook is similar to the topology of the system in which the event occurred.

Method and system for recommending runbooks for detected events

Techniques for recommending runbook operations during a runbook generation process are disclosed. The system recommends operations for including in the runbook based on user activity. Generating operations of a runbook based on user activity generates a runbook that captures a user's behavior. The recommended operations may be different than any operations performed by the user. The recommended operations may be based in part on data sets accessed by the user frequently, periodically, or continuously.

Automated runbook operation recommendations

Techniques for recommending runbook operations during a runbook generation process are disclosed. A system recommends operations for including in the runbook based on attributes of a detected event. The system presents event attributes associated with the detected event to a user in a runbook generation interface. When the user selects an event attribute, the system presents a set of candidate runbook operations associated with the event attribute. Based on user selections of runbook operations to include in a runbook, the system generates and stores a template of the runbook in which the attribute values associated with the detected event are omitted. Upon execution of the runbook at a future time, the system, or a user, may populate the event attributes in the runbook with values that correspond to the future event of the same event type.

Techniques for generating supplemental information based on runbook operation results are disclosed. A system generates and displays supplemental information for a runbook execution interface based on one of a system component associated with an executable operation of a runbook, and a set of runbook operation results corresponding to the executable operation. The system receives a user input to execute an operation defined by a runbook presented to remediate an event. The system generates supplemental information for the runbook execution interface based on the results of the operation executed by the user. The system identifies characteristics associated with the runbook operation results and identifies sources for additional information. Source may include performance data from the same component over a different period of time, performance data of a similar component, and performance data of topologically-connected components.
