Abstract

Automated computer-implemented processes and systems are directed to troubleshooting a network used by an application in a data center. The processes and system execute a framework for automated network troubleshooting of an application. The framework performs automated fault localization by traversing a dependency graph that models the network from the observed performance problem, guided by the causality relationships, and for each edge of the graph, performs a test to determine problem causality, terminates at a set of well-defined criteria, and outputs at least one potential root cause for the application performance problem.
