Event logging and debugging automation for kubernetes clusters
The patent US12045676B2 outlines a method and system for identifying and clustering events within a distributed application cluster. The method involves deploying a distributed agent across multiple nodes, each running at least one distributed application. A series of edge modules are configured to operate on each node, tracking data coresets that represent samples of the application data from their respective nodes. These data coresets are then merged to create a unified data coreset, which is transferred to the distributed agent. This agent utilizes an unsupervised machine-learning model to analyze the unified data coreset for event identification and clustering across the entire application cluster.
Additionally, the patent details various operational aspects of the system, including the periodic updating of the unified data coreset and the ability to generate it in response to specific data queries. The method also incorporates the deployment of Berkeley Packet Filter (BPF) probes and programs on each node to facilitate data tracking. The system is designed to enhance the efficiency of event identification and clustering in distributed environments, leveraging machine learning techniques to process and analyze application data effectively.
