Abstract
Correlating activity events to identify a root cause of a process failure. Activity event data is received from a process executing on a computing device. The activity event data corresponds to a plurality of activity events. Each of the activity events has a correlation identifier, a resolution status, and an occurrence time value associated therewith. Each of the activity events are assigned to one of a plurality of event groups based on the correlation identifier of the activity event. Thereafter, at least one of the event groups is determined to have an activity event with a resolution status indicating failure of the process. One of the activity events within the determined event group is selected as a root cause activity event based on the occurrence time values. In some embodiments, the root cause activity event is identified to a user of the computing device.
