Abstract
A method of monitoring a network for linked events includes receiving an indication of an occurrence of a first event in a computing environment, calculating a first estimated rate of occurrence of the first event based on a first cache associated with the first event, and identifying an occurrence of a second event within a threshold amount of time prior to the occurrence of the first event. The method further includes calculating a second estimated rate of occurrence of the second event based on a second cache associated with the second event and determining, based on the first estimated rate of occurrence of the first event and the second estimated rate of occurrence of the second event, whether the occurrence of the first event and the occurrence of the second event have a common cause.
