A first service's exhibition of a first symptom while executing a set of transactions is detected. A graph is constructed representing data flow between a set of services including the first service. By traversing the graph, a set of candidate services is constructed, a candidate service in the set of candidate services comprising a service exhibiting the first symptom, the set of candidate services including the first service. A probability of a first cause is evaluated, for the candidate service. At a problem service in the set of candidate services, a problem cause is ameliorated, the problem service identified using the set of candidate services and the probability of the first cause, the problem cause causing the first symptom.

Service issue source identification in an interconnected environment

Mechanisms are provided for determining threshold conditions for performing operations within a performance monitoring tool. Metric data is collected from a computing system environment and clustering analysis is performed on the metric data to generate a plurality of clusters. One or more candidate clusters are selected that are candidate clusters for generating a threshold condition for performance monitoring. At least one threshold condition for performance monitoring is generated based on a composition of the selected one or more candidate clusters. The at least one threshold condition is then applied to future performance metric data to determine whether to perform an operation in response to the future performance metric data meeting or not meeting the at least one threshold condition.
