Abstract

A system and method model activities in the production environment as sequences of microservices, and identify unusual activities by analyzing these sequences. In particular, a directed graph of usual activity is formed as a basis for determining unusual activities. Next, activities that were actually performed are determined by statistically analyzing records of microservice invocation in application diagnostic files. These activity sequences are overlaid on the directed graph to determine relative fit by using a trace coverage percentage score. Application instances or activities with low relative fit are deemed suspicious. If the low fit persists for an extended duration, then the instances or activities are deemed unusual and an individual is alerted to begin a manual review.
