Abstract

An anomaly service receives log data from nodes in a computing environment, which includes a sequence of information indicative of log messages produced by the nodes. The anomaly service identifies dominant patterns in the sequence of information that are representative of non-anomalous blocks of the log messages. Having identified the dominant patterns, the service is able to extract the non-anomalous blocks from the log data to reveal anomalous blocks that do not fit the dominant patterns. The service may then generate anomaly vectors based on the anomalous blocks, which can be distributed to the nodes to detect anomalies.
