Abstract
In furtherance of providing uninterrupted network service, a data analyzer engine in a network environment aggregates real-time feedback from multiple resources that collectively provide delivery of content to multiple subscribers in a network environment. According to one arrangement, the multiple resources are disposed along a network communication path between a content delivery source and the subscriber. Based on analyzing the aggregated real-time feedback from the multiple resources disposed along the network communication path, assume that the data analyzer engine detects occurrence of multiple anomaly conditions at a location in the network communication path. Each of the anomaly condition may or may not be representative of an actual network resource failure. In response to detecting first occurrence of the anomaly conditions, the data analyzer engine initiates generation of a notification to appropriate network management personnel indicating the occurrence of the detected anomaly condition. The network management personnel determine a root cause of the first occurrence of the detected anomaly conditions and provide feedback indicating the root cause and how to correct it.…
