Provided is a process of correlating information organized according to a logical architecture of a distributed application to information organized according to a network architecture of computers executing the distributed application, the process including: obtaining a logical-architecture topology of a logical architecture of a distributed application executing on a plurality of computing devices; obtaining a network-architecture topology of a physical architecture of the plurality of computing devices executing the distributed application; inferring pairs of logical-architecture host identifiers and network-architecture host identifiers that refer to the same computing device to produce a cross-namespace mapping that correlates the logical-architecture namespace with the network-architecture namespace; and storing the cross-namespace mapping in memory.

Integrated infrastructure and application performance monitoring

A system can be designed that shares transaction data across different organizations while preserving data privacy and anonymizing the source organization. Organizations can enter into an agreement to share transaction data with each other through a trusted data sharing system. The organizations can input user records that include primary and secondary explicit user identifiers into the data sharing system. The data sharing system can correlate explicit user identifiers of a user across organizations via an internal identifier without exposing explicit user identifiers. The data sharing system comprises a data anonymizer agent for each sharing organization. A data anonymizer agent selectively applies anonymization filters to quasi-identifiers in the transaction data based on quasi-identifier type to extend data privacy protection measures to quasi-identifiers without drastically reducing or eradicating the utility of the quasi-identifiers.

Privacy preserving cross-organizational data sharing with anonymization filters

Provided is a process, including: assigning different instances of a single-tenant application among a plurality of instances of the single-tenant application to different computing sessions with different client computing devices associated with different tenant user accounts; while the plurality of instances of the single-tenant application are executing, determining that a workload of the plurality of instances of the single-tenant application satisfies a first threshold condition; in response to the determination, automatically provisioning an added instance of the single-tenant application; and assigning the added instance of the single-tenant application to a session with a given client computing device.

Dynamically provisioning instances of a single-tenant application for multi-tenant use

Provided is a process including: receiving, with an infrastructure monitoring application, metrics and events from a plurality of infrastructure agents executing on a plurality of computing devices; receiving an event record from a given computing device among a plurality of computing devices executing the distributed application; accessing a plurality of parameters of a computing device associated with the device identifier; determining one or more network-architecture topology host identifiers based on the plurality of parameters; and storing in memory a correlation between the event record and the one or more network-architecture topology host identifiers.

Alarms with stack trace spanning logical and physical architecture

An alarm might not have information helpful to resolve the alarm to its contributing events. Thousands of events can occur in a system in a relatively short period of time, and any number of those events can contribute to various alarms. Tracing contributing events to an alarm can provide some helpful insight or at least efficiently provide a starting point for resolving or investigating an alarm. A system can determine, maintain, and persist associations at least among events, rule instances, and alarms to allow alarm-to-contributory event tracing.

Alarm to event tracing

A first event indication is received. In response to receiving the first event indication, it is determined that the first event indication has not been tagged. In response to determining that the first event indication has not been tagged, the first event indication is tagged as comprising an event chain. It is also determined that an event count associated with the event chain does not exceed a threshold. In response to determining that the event count does not exceed the threshold, the first event indication is processed.

Event chain detection

An interface definition language compiler can be designed to generate different versions of stubs or library files from a same IDL source code. A developer can maintain a single IDL file with code for various versions by using version directives. As part of front end compiling, the IDL compiler will determine which sections of IDL code are compatible with a specified version and compile those determined sections of IDL code. When performing semantic analysis, the IDL compiler will determine whether changes across versions create semantic issues that can be resolved in the target program language by the backend of the compiler. For those changes that cannot be resolved in the target program language, the IDL compiler can generate error notifications.
