Abstract
The current document is directed to methods and systems for processing, classifying, and efficiently storing large volumes of event messages generated in modern computing systems. In a disclosed implementation, received event messages are normalized to identify non-parameter tokens within the event messages. The non-parameter event tokens are used to compute a metric for each event message. The metrics are used, in turn, to identify a type-associated cluster to which to assign each received event message. The type-associated clusters are created dynamically as streams of event messages are processed. The type-associated clusters may be dynamically split and merged to refine event-message typing.
