A system, method, and computer-readable medium are disclosed for performing a data center monitoring and management operation. The data center monitoring and management operation includes: monitoring data center assets within a data center; identifying an issue within the data center, the issue being associated with an operational situation associated with a particular component of the data center; associating the issue with a particular point in time; and, informing a user about the issue, the informing including information regarding the particular point in time, the informing including a graphical depiction of the particular component of the data center and the issue within the data center.

Novel tools and techniques are provided for implementing error detection in a network, and, more particularly, to methods, systems, and apparatuses for implementing error and/or fault detection in a network and/or media stream and providing options to address the error and/or fault in the network and/or media stream. In various embodiments, a computer might detect an error in a first network and send a notification indicating that the error has occurred. The notification might contain one or more options to address the error in the first network. The computer, a user device, a service provider device, or a content provider device might receive and display the notification containing the one or more options. The computer, the user device, the service provider device, or the content provider device might then select at least one of the one or more options to address the error in the first network.

A network device that operates as an analysis platform for analysis of event data records that can provide a flexible approach to event data record aggregation. For example, aggregation can be flexibly turned on or off and dynamically adjusted based on event record volume and other factors such as network capacity or throughput. Devices that are instructed to aggregate records can also be instructed to archive the raw records, e.g., to maintain a full fidelity log of events. Devices can further be instructed to utilize a mixed queue approach to determine an order to deliver those records that includes both older records and newer records.

A method for event processing includes accepting for processing, as accepted events and according to a target rate limit, at least a subset of received events; associating respective ingested timestamps with the accepted events; associating respective processing completion timestamps with processed events of the accepted events; determining an average measured lag time using at least a subset of the respective processing completion timestamps and corresponding respective ingested timestamps; obtaining a throttled rate limit using a proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controller; and accepting subsequent events according to the throttled rate limit. The PID controller can be configured to use, as an input, an error value that is a difference between a target lag time and the average measured lag time. An integral part of the PID controller can be set to zero responsive to an accumulated average lag time being less than the target lag time.

This disclosure describes systems, methods, and devices related to network outage management. A method may include receiving a first indication of a first cable system outage. The method may include identifying a start time associated with the first cable system outage, and determining, based on the start time, a time period during which to refrain from generating a service ticket indicative of the first cable system outage. The method may include determining that the first cable system outage has not ended at an end time of the time period, and receiving a second indication of a second cable system outage. The method may include determining that the second cable system outage begins during the time period and has not ended at the end time. The method may include generating and sending a service ticket indicative of the first cable system outage and the second cable system outage.

An access network can include a plurality of remote nodes connected to a principal controller. The principal controller can experience an event storm when one or more of the plurality of remote nodes report an access network event at the same or substantially the same time. One or more remote nodes can mitigate such an event storm at the principal core by delaying by an event reporting delay the reporting of the access network event to the principal core. The event reporting delay can be based on an event delay policy associated with a given remote node. The even reporting delay can be different for each remote node or a group of remote nodes so that the principal core does not receive reports from the plurality of remote nodes so as to cause an event storm which can negatively impact the access network, one or more network devices, or both.

An intermediate network node manages location data of mobile terminals in a wireless communication network and includes a processing unit and a memory, which contains instructions executable by the processing unit, whereby the network node is operative to establish connection with one or more mobility management nodes in the network, establish connection with any one of network nodes requesting location data indicating the location of at least one mobile terminal, receive a request for the location data indicating the location of the at least one mobile terminal from a requesting network node of said network nodes, obtain a set of location information indicating the location of the at least one mobile terminal from at least one of the mobility management nodes, produce the requested location data from the obtained set of location information, and provide the produced location data to the requesting network node of said network nodes.

A method for managing alarms in a network includes identifying a first set of alarms based on data in a knowledge base, determining at least one attribute for each alarm in the first set of alarms, generating a model based on the at least one attribute, and applying the model to manage alarms in the network. The at least one attribute includes at least one of a persistence time for one or more alarms in the first set of alarms, an alarm group derived from the first set of alarms, and predictions for alarms in the first set of alarms. The model may be adaptively updated to track changing network conditions relating to the alarms.

Systems, methods, and other embodiments associated with intelligently processing log messages are described. In one embodiment, a computer-implemented method includes analyzing, by a logging appliance that includes at least hardware, communications received from a plurality of handlers to determine whether at least one of the communications indicates an error has been encountered by one of a plurality of components associated with the plurality of handlers. The method includes scheduling a subset of the plurality of handlers to provide reports that include a detailed set of log messages in response to detecting the error. The subset of the plurality of handlers includes handlers that are associated with the error.

A system, method, and computer program product are provided for determining dynamic subnetworks in a communication network. In use, a plurality of network entities of a communication network is determined. Additionally, measurements of an amount of interaction between pairs of network entities of the plurality of network entities are collected. Further, at least one division characteristic is determined, and an intersection between the measurements and the at least one division characteristic is determined. Moreover, at least one border of a subnetwork of the communication network is determined, where the at least one border is based on the intersection.
