- Description
- In large-scale online service systems, incidents occur frequently due to a variety of causes, from updates of software and hardware to changes in operation environment. These incidents could significantly degrade system's availability and customers' satisfaction. Some incidents are linked because they are duplicate or inter-related. The linked incidents can greatly help on-call engineers find mitigation solutions and identify the root causes. In this work, we investigate the incidents and their links in a representative real-world incident management (IcM) system. Based on the identified indicators of linked incidents, we further propose LiDAR (Linked Incident identification with DAta-driven Representation), a deep learning based approach to incident linking. More specifically, we incorporate the textual description of incidents and structural information extracted from historical linked incidents to identify possible links among a large number of incidents. To show the effectiveness of our method, we apply our method to a real-world IcM system and find that our method outperforms other state-of-the-art methods.
